gravity energy storage investment
📌

Why should you invest in gravity?

Gravitricity is developing two underground energy storage technologies that will support the energy transition, whilst offering significant value in rapidly growing markets. Watch our latest video to learn more about the technology, the team behind the innovation, and why the investment opportunity is one not to miss!

📌

Is gravity energy storage a good investment?

The results reveal that GES has resulted in good performance metrics including IRR and NPV of project and Equity, as well as ADSCR, and LLCR. In addition, for a 1 GW power capacity and 125 MWh energy capacity system, gravity energy storage has an attractive LCOS of 202 $/MWh.

📌

What is gravity energy storage?

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 electricity conversion. GES can be matched with renewable energy such as photovoltaic and wind power.

📌

Why is gravity the future of energy storage?

As the world generates more electricity from renewable energy sources, there is growing demand for technologies which can store excess energy produced and release it on demand. Gravitricity develops innovative, long duration underground storage technologies that deliver flexible, low-cost solutions for energy storage.

📌

How much does gravity storage cost?

For Gravity Storage systems, the levelized cost of storage decreases as the system size increases. Based on the system cost, GES with an energy storage capacity of 1 GWh, 5 GWh, and 10 GWh has an LCOS of 202 US$/MWh, 111 US$/MWh, 92 US$/MWh, respectively. This can be explained by the fact that the system CAPEX decreases with an increased capacity.

📌

What is gravity & how does it work?
