The 2000 series from Dumarey Green Power is a heavy duty flywheel energy storage system. Here are some example use cases to explain what it's for. The flywheel can be integrated into heavy transport equipment such as busses, trucks and diesel-electric trains. In the most simple configuration, the flywheel is acting as a KERS system capturing up to 300 kW of power generated through dynamic braking. The flywheel then provides this power back to the vehicle at the next acceleration event, improving performance and cutting fuel consumption. A flywheel can also be used as part of a load-levelling strategy. Consider a large electric shredder powered from a diesel engine. As material enters the shredder the system requires a brief but high spike in power. These spikes occur every few seconds through the working life of the equipment. Those power spikes are transmitted directly to the diesel generator, resulting in a continual "power-on power-off" working life. This is suboptimal for fuel consumption, emissions, and for reliability of the generator. The flywheel is able to provide 300kW of instant power when the shredder requires, and will charge from the generator in-between spikes. The result is a much more level power demand on the generator, with emissions and fuel savings providing a rapid return on investment. Load levelling can be applied to a vast number of applications. Flywheels do not suffer from cycle fatigue and the 2000 series can be charged and discharged millions of times. This makes it particularly suitable for applications which require frequent injections of power. If you want to discuss the potential of the 2000 series flywheel then drop me a message. https://lnkd.in/efTpkmZE

Reducing energy use is key for any business looking to improve sustainability and lower costs. We helped Adam’s Autoglass, an auto repair shop in Roblin, brighten their space and make their business more energy efficient. Through our Business Lighting Program, we installed 56 new LED fixtures and provided Adam’s Autoglass with a $1,370 incentive toward the upgrades. “I needed to brighten my shop, and the new lights definitely do the job!” said owner Adam Smith. On top of a brighter space, Adam’s Autoglass is expected to save 14,400 kWh of electricity every year, which translates to nearly $500 in annual savings on their energy bills!

What are the main components required for implementing KERS in an e-bike To implement a Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS) in an e-bike, several main components are required. These components work together to capture, store, and utilize kinetic energy effectively. Here are the key components: 1. Motor Generator Unit (MGU) - Function: This unit acts as both a motor and a generator. During braking, it converts kinetic energy into electrical energy. When acceleration is needed, it can use stored energy to assist the bike. 2. Power Control Unit (PCU) - Function: The PCU manages the flow of energy between the motor generator, storage unit, and the e-bike's electrical system. It ensures that energy is captured efficiently during braking and released appropriately during acceleration. 3. Energy Storage Unit - Types: - Batteries: High-voltage lithium-ion batteries are commonly used for storing recovered energy. - Flywheels: Mechanical systems that store energy in the form of rotational kinetic energy. They can provide quick bursts of power when needed. 4. Braking System Integration - Function: The KERS must be integrated with the existing braking system to capture energy effectively. This may involve modifying the brake design to connect with the motor generator. 5. Mechanical Components - Gears and Clutches: These components facilitate the transfer of energy from the motor generator to the wheels and ensure smooth operation during energy recovery and release. 6. Control Software - Function: Software is needed to monitor the system's performance, manage energy storage, and optimize the use of recovered energy. This includes algorithms for efficient energy capture and usage. By integrating these components, an e-bike can effectively utilize KERS to enhance its efficiency, extend its range, and reduce reliance on external charging sources.

🚛SO HOW DOES A SOLAR HYBRID TRUCK WORK?🌞 Scania, in partnership with Uppsala University, have developed a trailer covered in solar panels. The advantage is that it can be connected to a hybrid tractor and can act like an extra battery. It can store around 200 kilowatt hours of energy, roughly three times as much as the tractor. A big advantage to having the panels on the truck is ‘dynamic charging’ meaning you can charge while driving, rather than on the side of the road. What Scania are still trying to perfect - but will make the trailer particularly unique - is trying to make the solar-panel-covered trailer essentially act as an independently powered electric vehicle. This would mean it could be attached to an old combustion tractor as well as a modern hybrid one. The preliminary data from testing a solar trailer with a combustion engine suggests it could reduce fuel consumption by around 40%. #cleanenergy #solarpower #solarenergy
