Gravity energy storage (GES) is one of those innovative storage technologies that is still under development. Hence, this study proposes a new methodology which aims to optimally design and deploy a large-scale GES system in a hybrid PV-Wind plant to make it more competitive technically and economically.
Advanced energy storage systems (ESS) are critical for mitigating these challenges, with gravity energy storage systems (GESS) emerging as a promising solution due to their scalability, economic viability, and environmental benefits.
Optimal sizing model of gravity energy storage GES is a hydro-mechanical energy storage system which stores energy in gravitational potential form. Therefore, this study aims to determine the optimal size of GES components to ensure a required robustness while minimizing the cost of the whole system.
It is shown that an amount of charge and discharge of GES takes place every day depending on the energy generation and demand. In case the renewable power production is significant with high excess energy, the pump-motor charges GES within its permissible energy capacity. The GES turbine-generator discharges this power back when needed.
