Flywheel energy storage is currently considered a viable energy technology for energy storage due to its large instantaneous power and high energy density. It offers an onboard energy recovery and storage system which is durable, efficient, and environmentally friendly.
The use of new materials and compact designs will increase the specific energy and energy density to make flywheels more competitive to batteries. Other opportunities are new applications in energy harvest, hybrid energy systems, and flywheel’s secondary functionality apart from energy storage.
Flywheels are now a possible technology for power storage systems for fixed or mobile installations. FESS have numerous advantages, such as high power density, high energy density, no capacity degradation, ease of measurement of state of charge, don’t require periodic maintenance and have short recharge times .
