Gravity Storage
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. This game-changing technology meets all challenges of our times: Makes renewables a reliable energy source
Gravity Storage.
Heindl Energy. Gravity Storage in brief. Dear Reader, Renewable energy from wind and solar sources is now making a rapidly increasing contribution to global power supplies, with a growth rate of over 20% per year. Solar energy, in particular, is available in sufficient quantities in many regions around the world, and can currently
German company plans large-scale power storage
Southern German company Heindl Energy proposes to overcome one of the energy transition''s central challenges – how to store renewable electricity on a large scale – with a pumped hydro system that does not require mountains, reports Ralph Diermann for Spiegel Online.
Heindl Energy | Details | Darcy Partners
Henidl Energy, founded in 2010 in Stuttgart, was developing a new solution for large scale energy storage. Also known as Hydraulic Rock Storage, Gravity Storage is a new concept for storing power on a multi-GWh scale.
Gravity – the solution to energy storage?
Heindl''s Gravity Storage can store large amounts of electricity by pumping water below a cylinder-shaped rock to lift it when electricity is plentiful. Then, when electricity is needed, gravity pulls the rock down, pushing the water through turbines to

Gravity Storage – 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.
Mountain Gravity Energy Storage: A new solution for closing the
This paper argues that gravitational energy storage could fill the existing gap for energy storage technologies with capacity from 1 to 20 MW and energy storage cycles of 7 days to three years storage.
