This paper presents the design and investigation of a photovoltaic flywheel system for household purposes. The main goal of this work is the electrical and mechanical integration of the electromechanical high speed kinetic energy storage as UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) with photovoltaic solar system. The paper contains calculation and division of photovoltaic panels system according to its integration with active magnetic bearing (AMB) flywheel and external electric grid. The photovoltaic solar installation costs as well as its size were considered. The composite shell AMB flywheel prototype configuration design (using CAD-software) and two different material variants are investigated and presented. In particularly, the structural composite shell stress calculations of two different materials vs rotational speed are performed using a direct coupling of SolidWorks and Matlab (R) software. The analytical calculations of PY-flywheel system are provided in order to choose optimal type of photovoltaic panels according to motor/generator flywheel and household energy system requirements. All elements of PV-flywheel system as transducers, bridges, wiring diagrams, etc., are optimized using Simscape tools. Finally, short-and long-time simulations results of PV-AMB-flywheel system and initial experimental results are presented and discussed.
