A flywheel energy storage system can be described as a mechanical battery such that it does not create electricity but simply converts and stores the energy in form of kinetic energy until needed. In a matter of seconds, the electricity can be created from the spinning flywheel making it the ideal solution to help regulate supply in the electrical grid. Kinetic energy can be described as “energy of motion,” and in this case the motion of a spinning mass called a rotor.
