Gravity energy storage (GES) is a kind of physical energy storage technology that is environmentally friendly and economically competitive. Gravity energy storage has received increasing attention in recent years, with simple principles, low technical thresholds, energy storage efficiencies of up to 85%, fast start-up and long
The outstanding advantage of Gravity Storage compared to other storage technologies is its huge storage capacity. It increases with the fourth power of the piston´s radius, r4, which allows capacities up to 10 GWh or even more. The construction costs however only increase with the square of the radius, r². This means that with a wider radius
