The operating principle of a battery energy storage system (BESS) is straightforward. Batteries receive electricity from the power grid, straight from the power station, or from a renewable energy source like solar panels or other energy source, and subsequently store it as current to then release it when it is needed.

A flywheel energy storage system works by spinning a large, heavy wheel, called a flywheel at very high speeds. The energy is stored as rotational kinetic energy in the spinning wheel. When electricity is needed, the flywheel’s rotational speed is reduced, and the stored kinetic energy is converted back into electrical power using a generator.
