A Flywheel Energy Storage System (FESS) is defined as a system that stores energy for a distinct period of time to be retrieved later. There is a class distinction between flywheels used for smoothing the intermittent output of an engine or load on a machine and these energy storage systems.
The energy stored in a vehicle-mounted flywheel system is typically low, being of similar magnitude to the kinetic energy of the vehicle operating at a moderate speed.
The most common configuration for flywheel energy storage is a hermetically sealed system incorporating a motor generator, as explained in Section 1 (Fig. 11.1).
Flywheels have been investigated for energy storage with mechanical connection via hydraulic or continuously variable transmissions [ 4, 31 ]. Although this did not progress beyond the demonstrator stage, as vehicles are electrified to eliminate fossil fuels, there will be a need for energy storage.
