Flywheel Energy Density. Energy density tells us how much energy is stored in a given space or material. It''s like asking how much energy we can pack into a specific area or amount of material. For a flywheel energy storage system, the energy it can store mainly depends on two things: the weight of the rotor and ; how fast it spins.

Mechanical energy storage systems such as PHS, CAES and GES can be used to compensate for unexpected contingencies for example the failure of a generating unit. In this application premium is placed on mechanical energy storage being able to charge or discharge within a very short interval of time (in milliseconds of time).
