A standby power system includes a flywheel that rotates in a horizontal plane and is coupled to an engine and a motor/generator that have horizontally oriented shafts which rotate in vertical planes. A coupling changes the direction of rotation to couple the flywheel to the engine and/or to the motor/generator. The flywheel can rotate at speeds different from the speeds of rotation of the shafts and several systems can be ganged together to supply power. The coupling can include mechanical, electromechanical and hydraulic elements.
