Abstract - This study gives a critical review of flywheel energy storage systems and their feasibility in various applications. How does a flywheel energy storage system work?. One such technology is flywheel energy storage systems (FESSs). Compared with other energy storage systems, FESSs offer numerous advantages, including a long lifespan, exceptional efficiency, high power density, and minimal environmental impact. Pumped hydro has the largest deployment so far, but it is limited by geographical locations. Pre-fabricated containerized solutions now account for approximately 35% of all new utility-scale storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 40% market. .
