A flywheel-storage power system uses a flywheel for grid energy storage, (see Flywheel energy storage) and can be a comparatively small storage facility with a peak power of up to 20 MW. FESS is used for short-time storage and typically offered with a charging/discharging duration between 20 seconds and 20 minutes. When excess electricity is available, it is used to accelerate a flywheel to a very high speed. The energy is stored as kinetic energy and can be retrieved by slowing down the flywheel. . High-speed flywheels- made from composite materials like carbon fiber and fiberglas, typically operate at speeds between 20,000 and 60,000 revolutions per minute (RPM) and can store energy for a few seconds to a few minutes. Flywheels can store grid energy up to several tens of megawatts.
