## Abstract This paper presents a novel control system for the operation of a flywheel energyโstorage (FES) module used for power peak shaving in highโspeed railway substations. A double power converter drives a switched reluctance machine (SRM) along with a flywheel operating in a wide speed range
A prototype of a flywheel system with auto stable high temperature superconducting bearings was built and tested. The bearings offered good vertical and lateral stability. A metallic flywheel disk, ~ 190 mm x 30 mm, was safely rotated at speeds up to 15000 rpm. The disk was driven by a 3 phase synch
