This paper conducts a comparative analysis of four primary gravity energy storage forms in terms of technical principles, application practices, and potentials. These forms include Tower Gravity Energy Storage (TGES), Mountain Gravity Energy Storage (MGES), Advanced Rail Energy Storage (ARES), and Shaft Gravity Energy Storage (SGES).
China, abundant in mountain resources, presents good development prospects for MGES, particularly in small islands and coastal areas. In mountainous regions with suitable track laying and a certain slope, rail-type gravity energy storage exhibits significant development potential and can essentially replace pumped storage.
The review shows that pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) has reached a high maturity level as a technical system and is well covered by economic evaluation methods, whereas solid gravity energy storage (SGES) is still in an initial stage for system design and assessment.
