First-generation flywheel energy-storage systems use a large steel flywheel rotating on mechanical bearings. Newer systems use carbon-fiber composite rotors that have a higher tensile strength than steel and can store much more energy for the same mass. To reduce friction, magnetic bearings are sometimes used instead of mechanical bearings.
The major components that make up a flywheel configured for electrical storage are systems comprising of a mechanical part, the flywheel rotor, bearings assembly and casing, and the electric drive part, inclusive of motor-generator and power electronics.
