Flywheel energy storage systems using mechanical bearings can lose 20% to 50% of their energy in two hours. [17] Much of the friction responsible for this energy loss results from the flywheel changing orientation due to the rotation of the earth (an effect similar to that shown by a Foucault pendulum ).
