Flywheel energy storage (FES) works by spinning a rotor () and maintaining the energy in the system as. When energy is extracted from the system, the flywheel's rotational speed is reduced as a consequence of the principle of ; adding energy to the system correspondingly results in an increase in the speed of the flywheel. While some systems use low mass/high spee.

A typical system consists of a flywheel supported by connected to a. The flywheel and sometimes motor–generator may be enclosed in a to reduce friction and energy loss. First-generation flywheel energy-storage systems use a large flywheel rotating on mechanical bearings. Newer systems use composite that have a hi.
