The technology is referred to as a flywheel energy storage system (FESS). The amount of energy stored is proportional to the mass of the rotor, the square of its rotational speed and the square of its radius. Flywheel energy storage consists in storing kinetic energy via the rotation of a heavy object. Find out how it works.

One energy storage technology now arousing great interest is the flywheel energy storage systems (FESS), since this technology can offer many advantages as an energy storage solution over the alternatives. but when the energy is demanded, it may exceed RES energy production [3]. Also, there are monthly, seasonal, and annual fluctuations

In practice, due to the limited capacity of single FESS, multiple flywheel energy storage systems are usually combined into a flywheel energy storage matrix system (FESMS) to expand the capacity [9]. In addition, the coupling of flywheels with other energy storage systems can increase the economic efficiency and reduce the utilization
