Flywheel energy storage (FES) works by accelerating a rotor (flywheel) to a very high speed and maintaining the energy in the system as rotational energy. When energy is extracted from the system, the flywheel''s rotational speed is reduced as a consequence of the principle of conservation of energy; adding energy to the system correspondingly results in an increase in the speed of th
Furthermore, flywheels are environmentally friendly, free from toxic chemicals or disposal concerns, and highly efficient, reducing energy consumption. In summary, flywheel technology stands as a dependable and sustainable choice for UPS systems, addressing critical power needs across various sectors effectively.

Customers seeking a non-traditional UPS with battery installation may review a flywheel system for runtime. A flywheel is the combination of balanced weight, size, and speed which determines the length of stored energy. Essentially, a flywheel is a spinning mass creating inertia and stored energy. In the event of an outage, the flywheel
The way to increase or decrease the flywheel''s rotational speed is by applying a torque to its axis of symmetry. In the case of a flywheel UPS, its most common function is to convert the kinetic energy it stores to produce DC power. It also provides power conditioning and run-time in short bursts in the event of a power outage.
As a sustainable energy storage method, flywheel energy storage has become a direct substitute for batteries in UPS applications. Inner design of the flywheel
