CNN story - great read... Edisohttp://www.cnn.com/2007/US/07/09/heat.po...

somebody needs to learn what the Flywheel can do. (from CNN story) Electricity cannot be stored, so power systems have to be able to produce more than is needed to meet potential spikes in demand and pick up the slack when generators go offline for maintenance or other problems.

(Electricity can be stored in a Beacon Flywheel)!

"Electricity is the ultimate just-in-time inventory product, meaning you have to produce and generate the amount of power customers demand instantaneously at any moment," said Rick Sergel, CEO of the North American Electricity Reliability Corporation. NERC is in charge of overseeing the U.S. power grid.

everyone should go to the bottom of the link from CNN and email David Williams, Jim Acosta, Brian Vitagliano and Laura Dolan at CNN and let them know that this story they wrote could be followed up by the new technology from Beacon Power Corp called a Mega Watt Flywheel. what would this do to the pps if CNN did a story on this?!?!
Edison Electric Institute also needs to learn what the Flywheel can do for them.

cheers, P
