Gravitricity is an innovative energy storage company specializing in gravity-based power storage and underground hydrogen solutions. Headquartered in Edinburgh, Scotland, the company uses heavy weights suspended in deep shafts to store potential energy. When energy is required, the weights are lowered, generating electricity almost instantly. This method offers a highly responsive, cost-effective, and long-lasting alternative to conventional battery storage. Additionally, Gravitricity is developing H₂FlexiStore, an underground hydrogen storage system that ensures safe and scalable hydrogen containment for future energy needs.
The company successfully demonstrated its gravity storage technology in a 250kW pilot project at the Port of Leith in 2021 and is now working on commercial deployments worldwide. With growing global investment in renewable energy and energy storage, Gravitricity’s technologies play a crucial role in creating a more resilient, low-carbon energy infrastructure, supporting net-zero targets and sustainable power grids worldwide.
