Energy storage
Energy storage is the capture of energy produced at one time for use at a later time [1] to reduce imbalances between energy demand and energy production. A device that stores energy is generally called an accumulator or battery. Energy comes in multiple forms including radiation, chemical, gravitational potential, electrical potential ...

Flywheel Energy Storage Explained
Share this post. Flywheel energy storage systems (FESS) are a great way to store and use energy. They work by spinning a wheel really fast to store energy, and then slowing it down to release that energy when needed. FESS are perfect for keeping the power grid steady, providing backup power and supporting renewable energy sources.
