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 higher tensile strength than steel and can store much more energy for the same mass. Moreover, the flywheel can effectively assist the hybrid drivetrain to meet the vehicle's large peak power requirements. There is noticeable progress in FESS, especially in utility, large-scale deployment for the electrical grid, and renewable energy applications. 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. .
