Just thought I'd mention that I once saw a diagram of a bus in limited
use in Europe that uses a flywheel as secondary storage. The flywheel
is accelerated during braking, and its momentum is used to accelerate the
vehicle when it resumes travel.  I believe that the primary fuel was
hydrogen or LPG.  The flywheel arrangement was employed to reduce fuel
consumption.
