Switzerland-based Energy Vault says it has built a large gravity storage installation in China which will help balance the electrical output of a wind farm, and it is now being "commissioned" before connection to the grid.
Gravity storage has been proposed by a number of players, as a way to store solar and wind energy that has been generated at times when demand is low. On a sunny day, for instance, a solar farm's output could be stored as potential energy by raising concrete blocks.
From the agreement between Enel and Energy Vault, the first gravitational energy storage plant will rise in a Western country; an innovative and circular project.
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 operating principle of Energy Vault's Gravitational Energy Storage System (GESS) is similar to that of pumped storage hydroelectric power plants.
ABSTRACT Gravity energy storage (GES) technology relies on the vertical movement of heavy objects in the gravity field to store or release potential energy which can be easily coupled to electricit...
