A stabilization system for a rotating load such as a flywheel includes a mechanical bearing to continuously support a shaft of the rotating load so as to hold the shaft at a substantially fixed axis of rotation. A magnetic stabilization assembly includes a plurality of electromagnets arranged around the shaft. Contr...

A station constituted of: a control circuit; a bidirectional interface coupling to an AC grid; one of a load and an arrangement for coupling to a load the load presenting a time varying electrical energy consumption to the station; and a plurality of flywheel based electrical storage units coupled to the bidirection...
