For discharging, the motor acts as a generator, braking the rotor to produce electricity. Each FESS module has a power electronics module which allows its AC motor-generator to interface with a DC bus that is common to several FESS modules. When energy is extracted from the system, the flywheel's rotational speed is reduced as a consequence of the principle of conservation of energy; adding energy to the. . Flywheel energy storage systems have gained increased popularity as a method of environmentally friendly energy storage. This chapter mainly introduces the main structure of the flywheel energy storage. . It follows on from these basic laws of physics that a flywheel will store more energy if it has either a higher moment of inertia (more mass or mass positioned further from its center) or if it spins at a higher speed.

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.

This chapter mainly introduces the main structure of the flywheel energy storage system, the electromechanical control system, and the charging and discharging control process [62]. Energy storage systems (ESS) play an essential role in providing continu-ous and high-quality power. Electrical energy is thus converted to kinetic energy for storage. Compared with other energy storage systems, FESSs offer numerous advantages, including a long lifespan, exceptional efficiency, high power. .
