rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 174 Posts: 16812 | A company called "Energy Vault" has built a working platform of gravity storage. To put it simply, excess energy is stored by stacking large stones in a symmetrical structure by crane. When energy sources aren't producing power, the cranes produce energy through lowering the blocks back to the lower position. This is the same process used already used in some reservoirs when lots of water is available and excess energy is used to pump it uphill. But this can be used basically anywhere with a place to build a structure. Supposedly they are building one in Louisiana. If there was a natural right to a gun, we'd be born with one in our hand |

This sounds like some kind of bad joke. Stones? Really? If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
