Abstract
The role of electricity is very important for emergency power cut or power blackout time for low power home utility such as lights, mobile charger and fan. Moreover, current source of emergency power production device are diesel generator, inverter and battery or some people use solar powered system but these three systems are more initial cost. But have limited lifetime for battery or high maintenance for diesel Engine. Renewable energy is the clean and endless source of energy that nature offers to humans. Renewable energy sources include solar energy, wind energy, biomass energy, ocean wave energy, geothermal energy, the most popular sources are solar and wind energy. However, wind and solar power sources are always subject to fluctuations due to weather and environmental conditions. In solar energy conversion system, the step up are more space required that is space to energy density is low. And some time Solar energy peak power compensation can be achieved through battery storage systems, which are more space required and the battery life time also less. This project combines Solar and Flywheel Energy Storage System to produce high energy output with low initial cost. In existing flywheel energy storage system use Grid power to spin the flywheel. This project prototype initially uses 12V solar panel 10-watt, low power motor with high RPM which is reduced by help of reduction gear box to produce high torque to rotate the flywheel and then flywheel is coupled with custom build generator step-up from the automobile alternator coil to generate electricity. In this prototype equipped with Hall Effect sensor for detect speed of flywheel according to the flywheel speed the motor will start and stop which result increases the efficiency.
