A Finnish company has signed an agreement with the Edinburgh-based underground energy storage firm Gravitricity
Scottish firm will investigate the potential of storing energy in one of the decommissioned shafts of a coal mine in Germany
Scottish firm Gravitricity has partnered with a US construction group to seek funds jointly for renewable energy schemes, including those at disused mines
Scotland’s Gravitricity has teamed up with a Czech electricity flexibility company to bring their gravity storage technology to market
The UK could see the first of a kind scheme that stores green hydrogen in underground shafts
An Edinburgh-based firm claims its gravity energy system could store large amounts of hydrogen
The £1m demonstrator project will use underground shafts and massive weights to store energy
Winch specialist Huisman has now begun creating the gravity-based equipment, which will be trialled early next year in Edinburgh, Scotland
The pilot project aims to demonstrate the firm’s technology, which works by using excess electricity to lift 12,000 tonnes of weights in a deep shaft and releasing them at a later time to generate energy
Innovate UK funding of £300K aims to allow start-up Gravitricity to take pressure off grids and ensure a continuous supply of power
