Flywheels are broadly classified into two types, namely low speed (<10 000 rpm) and high speed (<100 000 rpm). The low-speed FESS typically use heavy materials such as steel, whereas the high-speed FESS normally use lighter composite materials. . There is noticeable progress in FESS, especially in utility, large-scale deployment for the electrical grid, and renewable energy applications. This paper gives a review of the recent developments in FESS technologies. Due to the highly interdisciplinary nature of FESSs, we survey different design. . FESS is used for short-time storage and typically offered with a charging/discharging duration between 20 seconds and 20 minutes. However, one 4-hour duration system is available on the market. FESS is typically positioned between ultracapacitor storage (high cycle life but also very high storage. . Abstract - This study gives a critical review of flywheel energy storage systems and their feasibility in various applications. Unlike traditional batteries, these systems use rotational kinetic energy to deliver rapid response times and high cycle efficiency – perfect for applications requiring short-duration energy bursts.
