Flywheel energy storage technology is a form of mechanical energy storage that works by accelerating a rotor (flywheel) to a very high speed and maintaining the energy in the system as kinetic energy.
Flywheel energy storage (FES) works by spinning a rotor (flywheel) and maintaining the energy in the system as rotational energy. When energy is extracted from the system, the flywheel''s rotational
