Could Flywheels Be the Future of Energy Storage?

The flywheel continues to store energy as long as it continues to spin; in this way, flywheel energy storage systems act as mechanical energy storage. When this energy needs to be retrieved, the rotor transfers its rotational energy back to a generator, effectively converting it into usable electrical energy.
