Our GraviStore underground gravity energy storage technology uses the force of gravity to offer some of the best characteristics of lithium batteries and pumped hydro storage.

Understanding Gravity Energy Storage Technology. Gravity Energy Storage Technology, often reviated as GEST, operates on the principle of gravitational potential energy. It involves lifting heavy objects, such as massive weights or containers filled with materials, to a higher elevation when energy is abundant or inexpensive.

About us The concept of Gravity Storage was invented by Professor Eduard Heindl and has since 2014 been continually developed by the German company Heindl Energy GmbH, supported by a team of civil engineering, geology, mining and geophysics specialists. The assets of Heindl Energy GmbH has been sold in 2021 to Gravity Storage GmbH, based

Gravity Power:Non-Explosive, Non-Flammable, Non-Degrading and Freely Available. Advanced Rail Energy Storage (ARES) uses proven rail technology to harness the power of gravity, providing a utility-scale storage solution at a cost that beats batteries. ARES'' highly efficient electric motors drive mass cars uphill, converting electric power to

Simple, clever and durable: The technical concept of Gravity Storage uses the gravitational power of a huge mass of rock. It will store electricity of large capacity between 0,5 and 10 GWh and will close the gap between renewable energy production and 24/7 supply with zero carbon electricity: cost-efficient, at giga-scale, environmentally friendly.
