One key advantage of flywheel energy storage is its exceptional energy efficiency, which minimizes energy loss during storage and retrieval. This efficient design allows for rapid charging and
View Details
A flywheel is a mechanical storage system that converts electricity to kinetic energy during charging and the kinetic energy back to electricity during discharge.
