LUSAKA ENERGY STORAGE PLANT OPERATION
In FESSs, electric energy is transformed into kinetic energy and stored by rotating a flywheel at high speeds. An FESS operates in three distinct modes: charging, discharging, and holding.

A typical system consists of a flywheel supported by rolling-element bearing connected to a motor–generator. The flywheel and sometimes motor–generator may be enclosed in a vacuum chamber to reduce friction and energy loss. First-generation flywheel energy-storage systems use a large steel flywheel rotating on mechanical bearings. Newer systems use carbon-fiber composite rotors that have a hi
FLYWHEEL ENERGY STORAGE
Think of it as a mechanical storage tool that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy for storage. This energy is stored in the form of rotational kinetic energy.
