If you are extracting energy from something rotating, it slows down.  The 
Wiki page I pointed you to talks about how to lower an object in orbit by 
extracting energy or raise it by putting energy into it.

It is just an electric motor or generator.  That's always the case when you 
talk about moving wires relative to magnet fields or vice versa.
