Flywheel Energy Storage Explained

Right, picture this, mate: a flywheel’s just a big ol’ spinning disc,

yeah? You pump energy in, it spins faster, like a geezer leggin’

it down the street. That kinetic energy gets stored in the rotation, proper physics job.

Then, when you need the juice back, you slow it down, nick the energy,

and feed it to the system. No batteries, no chemicals — just pure mechanical

graft. Heavy steel, carbon fibre, whatever you fancy, all balanced so

it don’t wobble like a dodgy record player. It’s quick, efficient,

and built for keepin’ the lights on when the grid’s havin’ a wobble. Spin it up,
