Because a flywheel must be accelerated by an external force before it will store energy, it is considered a “dynamic” storage system. The rate at which the flywheel spins remains nearly constant because of the vacuum-like container, which prevents friction from slowing the revolution.
Compared to battery energy storage system, flywheel excels in providing rapid response times, making them highly effective in managing sudden frequency fluctuations, while battery energy storage system, with its ability to store large amounts of energy, offers sustained response, maintaining stability .
Flywheel (FW) saves the kinetic energy in a high-speed rotational disk connected to the shaft of an electric machine and regenerates the stored energy in the network when it is necessary . First use of FW regurgitates to the primitives who had applied it to make fire and later, FWs have been used for mechanical energy storage .
