Abstract - This study gives a critical review of flywheel energy storage systems and their feasibility in various applications. Where is a flywheel energy storage system located?. The available solutions today have many drawbacks including environmental impacts, safety hazards, declining capacity, high maintenance requirements, limited operating conditions, and grid management constraints. Fly wheels store energy in mechanical rotational energy to be then converted into the required power form when required. For displacing solar power from midday to late afternoon and evening, flywheels provide a. . These events underline the essential need to establish high standards of safety and preventative measures. DOE and Sandia recently proposed some guidelines (4) for designers. .
