OverviewMain componentsPhysical characteristicsApplicationsComparison to electric batteriesSee alsoFurther readingExternal links

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…

Flywheel Energy Storage Explained

Share this post. Flywheel energy storage systems (FESS) are a great way to store and use energy. They work by spinning a wheel really fast to store energy, and then slowing it down to release that energy when needed. FESS are perfect for keeping the power grid steady, providing backup power and supporting renewable energy sources.
