Abstract: The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) is entering a multi-year decommissioning programme of the Joint European Torus (JET) experimental fusion machine at the end of 2023 under the JET Decommissioning and Repurposing Programme. One of the key existing systems that have historically provided additional power to the Fusion machine will no longer be required for their primary purpose and an opportunity exists to repurpose the equipment for alternative use. A preliminary feasibility study has identified that the Flywheel Generator Convertors (FGCs) could be repurposed to provide inertia as part of the National Grid Stability Services (ESO).The two Flywheel Generator Convertors (FGCs) can each supply 2600 MJ to their respective magnet load coils with a peak power of 410 MVA. Each flywheel generator is currently independently operated and used as energy storage for Joint European Torus (JET) pulses. They are driven by 8 MW pon...
