As the world generates more electricity from renewable energy sources, there is growing demand for technologies which can store excess energy produced and release it on demand. Gravitricity develops innovative, long duration underground storage technologies that deliver flexible, low-cost solutions for energy storage.
Gravitricity develops below ground gravity energy storage systems and raised £40 million to commercialise projects in January this year, as covered by our sister site Solar Power Portal. The firm’s technology works by raising weights in a deep shaft and releasing them when energy is required.
Gravity Power is the only storage solution that achieves dramatic economies of scale. PNNL conducted a study to calculate the LCoE (levelized cost of energy) for 14 storage technologies, grouped into Pumped Storage Hydroelectric, Hydrogen, Flow, and Lithium Ion. The Gravity Power technology is by far the most cost-effective.
The firm’s only gravity-based storage system does not rely on land topography or geology and “thus can be built almost anywhere either co-located with solar or wind plants or simply connected to the grid to support dispatchability and grid stability,” according to a statement by the firm.
The company plans to fund up to five projects at current and former mines. Gravitricity has also been contracted to investigate the potential of storing energy at a decommissioned mine in Halle, Germany, by the mine’s owner Geiger Group.
