Gravity batteries might be the answer. The idea sounds simple – when there is plenty of green energy, the batteries use the power to lift a heavy weight either high into the air or to the top of a deep shaft. Then when the power is needed, winches gradually lower the weight, and produce electricity from the movement of the cables.
The capital expenditures of the gravity energy storage systems are very high, while the percentage of the round-trip efficiency of mechanical systems can vary from low to 90% for some applications e.g. the "Energy Vault …
