A flywheel energy storage can have energy fed in the rotational mass of a flywheel, store it as kinetic energy, and release out upon demand. They work by spinning up a heavy disk or rotor to high speeds and then tapping that rotational energy to discharge high power bursts of electricity. It is difficult to use flywheels to store energy for ...
