Abstract. Large-scale energy storage technology is crucial to maintaining a high-proportion renewable energy power system stability and addressing the energy crisis and environmental problems. Solid gravity energy storage technology (SGES) is a promising mechanical energy storage technology suitable for large-scale applications.

This concept is known as gravity storage, as it stores electricity in the form of gravitational potential energy. This storage option provides better operating characteristics and economically sounds solution over conventional pumped hydro storage, and can be placed almost anywhere electricity storage is needed.

Solid gravity energy storage technology has excellent potential for development because of its large energy storage capacity, is hardly restricted by geographical conditions, and low cost. SGES is one of the ideal alternatives for wind power and photovoltaic energy storage in areas lacking PHES construction conditions.

Gravity energy storage is getting noticed by investors and governors in large part for being so simple – all one needs are heavy objects, winding gear, and either a high tower or a very deep drop. There are minimal raw material requirements, a small land footprint per kWh, no harmful chemicals, low operational costs and high round-trip
