7. Controlling a flywheel is much simpler than managing a battery. The reason is that batteries, unlike flywheels, have memory & change their characteristics with time, temperature, number of cycles & past charge/discharge history. 8. Unlike batteries, steel flywheels are heavy & are not practical for vehicles. 9.
