With each unit capable of producing between 35-45 kWp of power, the system is designed for high efficiency and rapid response, which is ideal for balancing the power grid as renewable energy sources like Energy up to 150 kWh can be absorbed or released per flywheel. . A flywheel-storage power system uses a flywheel for grid energy storage, (see Flywheel energy storage) and can be a comparatively small storage facility with a peak power of up to 20 MW. It typically is used to stabilize to some degree power grids, to help them stay on the grid frequency,and to serve as a short-term compensation storage. Pumped hydro has the largest deployment so far, but it is limited by geographical locations. Energy storage is a vital component of any power system. .
