The New York Power Authority (NYPA) will install and demonstrate a high speed Flywheel Energy Storage System (FESS) at the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) Malvern station in Long Island NY. The scope of the project is a turn-key installation of a 2.5 MW FESS to provide traction power voltage support for LIRR to mitigate voltage sag problems, reduce power peak demand charges, and offset costly electric distribution upgrades.
Primary participants:
- New York Power Authority (NYPA)- MTA Long Island Rail Road
- Pentadyne Power Corporation
