The authors report upon research activities, with magnetically suspended flywheels, that are being cooperatively conducted by TPI Inc. and the University of Maryland for GSFC (Goddard Space Flight Centre). The purpose of the effort is to critically examine and further the development of all the key technologies which impact the inertial energy storage system. The results presented discuss the concept of a magnetically suspended flywheel as it applies to a 500 W h energy storage system. The proposed system is under hardware development and is based upon two 'pancake' magnetic bearings arranged in a vertical stack
