Explore the intriguing world of Flywheel Energy Storage (FES) systems, their working principles, benefits, applications, and future prospects. Flywheel Energy Storage (FES) systems are intriguing solutions in the broad spectrum of energy storage technologies.
Energy storage is performed by radius and weight parameters in this method. Fig. 7.8 shows the integration of the flywheel energy storage system with the grid. In this method the stored energy is transferred to the grid by a generator, alternative current (AC)/direct current (DC) rectifier circuit, and DC/AC inverter circuit. Figure 7.8.
The major components that make up a flywheel configured for electrical storage are systems comprising of a mechanical part, the flywheel rotor, bearings assembly and casing, and the electric drive part, inclusive of motor-generator and power electronics.
The energy storage facility provided by flywheels are suitable for continuous charging and discharging options without any dependency on the age of the storage system. The important aspect to be taken note of in this regard is the ability of FES to provide inertia and frequency regulation .
Permanent-Magnet Motors for Flywheel Energy Storage Systems The permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) and the permanent-magnet brushless direct current (BLDC) motor are the two primary types of PM motors used in FESSs. PM motors boast advantages such as high efficiency, power density, compactness, and suitability for high-speed operations.
The operational mechanism of a flywheel has two states: energy storage and energy release. Energy is stored in a flywheel when torque is applied to it. The torque increases the rotational speed of the flywheel; as a result, energy is stored.

Flywheel energy storage
Flywheel energy storage (FES) works by accelerating a rotor to a very high speed and maintaining the energy in the system as rotational energy. When energy is extracted from the system, the flywheel''s rotational speed is reduced as a consequence of the principle of conservation of energy ; adding energy to the system correspondingly results in ...
