This principle of physics is called the conservation of energy, and it can be used to store energy so that it can be used at times when it’s needed: this is what’s called gravitational storage, or gravity storage. How does gravitational energy storage work? How gravitational energy storage works is simple.
The fundamental principle of gravity energy storage technology is to achieve the conversion between gravitational potential energy and electrical energy through the lifting and lowering of heavy objects. During the lifting phase, excess electrical energy is converted into gravitational potential energy for storage.
Its working principle is similar to that of tower-based gravity energy storage, except that this system employs natural underground shafts or abandoned mines to lift heavy weights. This approach fully leverages existing underground spaces, reduces construction costs, and minimizes surface land occupation.
The hydraulic gravitational energy storage (HGES) concept could have various configurations which have been introduced and investigated before, for example, Heindl energy (HE) (Heindl Energy GmbH, n.d.); EscoVale known as ground-breaking (GB) energy storage (Escovale, n.d.); and Gravity Power (GP) gravity (Gravity Power, n.d.).
The system’s overall round-trip efficiency ranges between 70 and 75%. The entire process is chemical-free and environmentally friendly. Suitable for mountainous areas and abandoned mines, several pilot projects of rail-mounted gravity energy storage systems have already been implemented.
Future development of gravity energy storage will require technological innovation, intelligent dispatch systems, and policy support to enhance economic viability and accelerate commercialization.
