Indeed, but it isn't that hard to get 1.21 gigawatts of power either. All you need is an 80" OD cylinder with 1" walls that weighs 120lbs and spin it up to a measly ten million rpm. The cylinder is then storing about 10 gigajoules of energy... just deliver that energy in the right time and you have 1.21 gigawatts of power... By an amazing coincidence that flywheel seems to follow the weight limit and <R16> rules; I had better get working on this, don't want to get left in the future.
