  • Publication number: 20230261505
    Abstract: A renewable energy generation system includes a drive motor, a flywheel in mechanical communication with the drive motor, a generator in mechanical communication with the flywheel, a charge controller in electrical communication with the generator, a plurality of charge controller switches in electrical communication with the charge controller, a plurality of batteries in electrical communication with a respective charge controller switch, and a power management module in electrical communication with the plurality of charge controller switches. The drive motor effectuates rotation of the flywheel to generate stored rotational energy which is transferred to the generator as a load is placed upon the generator to maintain a constant speed of the drive motor. The power management module selectively opens or closes a charge controller switch to permit or inhibit the flow of electrical energy to a respective battery to reduce the electrical load placed upon the generator and drive motor.

  • Patent number: 11506255
    Abstract: A flywheel assembly for a renewable energy generation system includes a flywheel housing defining a cavity therein, a flywheel rotatably disposed within the cavity of the flywheel housing, where the flywheel is simultaneously formed from the same component as the flywheel housing, a magnetic levitation disk defining opposed upper and lower surfaces, the upper surface supporting the flywheel and the lower surface including a first plurality of magnets disposed thereon, and a base plate having a second plurality of magnets disposed on a surface thereof that is facing the first plurality of magnets, the second plurality of magnets having a polarity that is opposite of a polarity of the first plurality of magnets such that the magnetic force of the first and second plurality of magnets urges the magnetic levitation disk away from the base plate.
