Energy Vault Scaled Gravity Storage. The Battery Benchmark Is Brutal.

AI Summary

Energy Vault's Rudong gravity-storage project in China demonstrates a scaled approach to gravity energy storage technology, leveraging deep domestic supply chains and government support. This first-of-kind project removes many typical barriers to energy innovation.

Energy Vault’s Rudong gravity-storage project is a particularly useful technology test because it removes many of the excuses that can surround a first-of-kind energy project. It was built in China, with deep domestic supply chains for concrete, steel, motors, power electronics and industrial construction. It had government support, grid coordination ...
