Concrete solutions are needed to solve the large-scale electricity storage problem for both daily and seasonal applications, and it\u2019s going to require some heavy lifting. A new generation of gravity batteries have emerged based on the lifting and lowering massive concrete weights. The solution may prove a viable option for storing and releasing grid scale electrical energy over periods as short as seconds to as long as months, which would represent a significant step towards renewable energy utilization.<br \/>\nSee full article at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advancedsciencenews.com\/climate-change-will-require-heavy-lifting\/\">Advanced Science News<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the global hunger for electricity grows and the transition to solar and wind accelerates, electricity storage capacity is urgently needed to handle the challenges of scale and intermittency.
