Concrete block building block gravity energy storage is a system where concrete blocks are elevated to store energy. When supply falls short of demand, the blocks are lowered, and their weight pulls cables that spin turbines to generate electricity1. The concept is based on the principle that elevating something against gravity stores energy, and when it falls, that energy can be recovered2.

Researchers have come up with a new way to store electricity in cement, using cheap and abundant materials. If scaled up, the cement could hold enough energy in a home’s concrete foundation to fulfill its daily power needs. Scaled up further, electrified roadways could power electric cars as they drive.

With concrete thermal energy storage, large concrete blocks are stacked in a location adjacent to a thermal power plant. When the plant’s power output is not needed by the grid, its steam is redirected from the plant’s turbines to tubes embedded in the blocks, storing the steam’s heat in the concrete.

In response to concerns over underutilization of storage, government regulators have reportedly begun exploring the removal of the mandatory integration policy and the optimization of the NTESS operation mechanism. New energy storage also faces high electricity costs, making these storage systems commercially unviable without subsidies.
