Energy storage is a valuable tool for balancing the grid and integrating more renewable energy. When energy demand is low and production of renewables is high, the excess energy can be stored for later use. When demand for energy or power is high and supply is low, the stored energy can be discharged. Due to the hourly, seasonal, and locational

Fig. 5.11 below demonstrates that Gravitricity''s levelizd cost of storage in $/kWh for a 25-year lifetime project will be $171, which is less than half that of lithium-ion batteries at the time of writing. The long life nature of this technology also contributes to the low price per kWh installed.

Energy storage is the capture of energy produced at one time for use at a later time [1] to reduce imbalances between energy demand and energy production. A device that stores energy is generally called an accumulator or battery. Energy comes in multiple forms including radiation, chemical, gravitational potential, electrical potential
