摘要: |
A preliminary assessment of the impacts resulting from incorporation of flywheel energy storage systems into automotive fleets in a large metropolitan city is described. Specifically, the case of taxicab fleet operation within New York City is examined. Based upon available taxicab operational data, a levelized life-cycle cost comparison between a standard internal combustion engine vehicle in present use as a taxicab and a projected hybrid flywheel-internal combustion engine vehicle (taxicab) has been generated. Energy conservation and environmental benefits are discussed and potential institutional barriers to rapid deployment of flywheel energy storage systems are identified. The results obtained from this study generally emphasize the value of incorporating flywheel energy storage systems into future vehicles designed for taxicab use. |
