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. When energy is extracted from the system, the flywheel''s rotational speed is reduced as a consequence of the principle of conservation of energy; adding energy to the system correspondingly results in an increase in the speed of th

Energy storage is the capture of energy produced at one time for use at a later time [1] to reduce imbalances between energy demand and energy production.

When energy is required, the motor functions as a generator, because the flywheel transfers rotational energy to it. This is converted back into electrical energy, thus completing the cycle. As the flywheel spins faster, it experiences greater force and thus stores more energy. Flywheels are thus showing immense promise in the field of energy

Flywheel energy storage, also known as FES, is another type of energy storage device, which uses a rotating mechanical device to store/maintain the rotational energy. The operational mechanism of a flywheel has two states: energy storage and energy release. Energy is stored in a flywheel when torque is applied to it.

A flywheel system stores energy mechanically in the form of kinetic energy by spinning a mass at high speed. Electrical inputs spin the flywheel rotor and keep it spinning until called upon to release the stored energy. The amount of energy available and its duration is controlled by the mass and speed of the flywheel.
Flywheel is generally applied in energy storage systems to keep up with the energy in the system as rotational energy. Providing energy at higher rates than the limit of the energy source. This is done by getting energy in a flywheel after some time. Then, at that point, releasing it rapidly at rates that surpass the energy source''s capabilities.
