How EARTHENVOLT stores energy with gravity

Our grid-scale gravity battery platform converts surplus renewable power into stored potential energy, then dispatches it back to the grid with predictable performance, sustainable materials, and commercial-scale flexibility.

How the system works

EARTHENVOLT combines proven mechanical principles with modern controls to deliver long-duration storage for utilities, grid operators, and enterprise-scale energy users.

01

Charge with surplus power

When renewable generation exceeds demand, electric motors lift mass within a vertical storage structure, converting excess electricity into stored gravitational potential energy.

02

Hold energy efficiently

The system stores energy without combustion, rare materials, or fuel consumption, enabling stable long-duration performance with low operational complexity.

03

Discharge on demand

When the grid needs support, the descending mass drives generators to return electricity with controlled output for balancing and reliability services.

04

Scale by site type

The platform can be adapted in any environment, large cities, and large infrastructure projects to match local grid and land conditions.

Efficiency

Long-duration

Storage window

Supports shifting renewable generation across longer demand cycles for a more resilient zero-carbon grid.

Low-carbon

Material strategy

Uses sustainable, durable materials to reduce lifecycle impact while supporting infrastructure-scale deployment.

Giga-scale

Capacity potential

Designed to expand from commercial installations to major grid assets with repeatable engineering principles.

EARTHENVOLT technology is engineered to improve grid stability, integrate more renewable energy, and provide commercially credible storage capacity where it matters most.
