About Flywheel Energy Storage. Flywheel energy storage (FES) works by accelerating a rotor (flywheel) to a very high speed and maintaining the energy in the system as rotational energy.As a result of the energy conservation principle, the flywheel''s rotational speed decreases when energy is removed from the system and increases
