Business Summary
Beacon Power Corp. designs and develops flywheel energy storage systems that it believes will provide highly reliable, high-quality, uninterruptible electric power for communications and computer networks, the Internet, industrial manufacturing, commercial facilities and distributed generation products that allow the user to generate power locally by converting fuel to electricity. The Company's initial product will provide two kWh (kilowatt-hours) of energy at up to one kW (kilowatt) of power. Thus, the two-kWh flywheel would be able to provide 10 hours of back-up power to a telecommunications site that requires 200 watts of power. For a site using the full one-kW capacity of the conversion electronics, the flywheel would provide back-up power for two hours.
