Compared to thermal energy storage like HES, which is less efficient, gravity energy storage can reach 70–90% efficiency, with direct and stable output. Gravity energy storage, a technology based on gravitational potential energy conversion, offers advantages including long lifespan, environmental friendliness, and low maintenance costs, demonstrating broad application prospects in renewable energy integration and grid peak regulation. The G-VAULT™ platform utilizes a mechanical process of lifting and lowering composite blocks or water to store and dispatch electrical energy. This paper proposes a multi-objective economic capacity. This paper explores and gives an overview of recent gravity based energy storage techniques. This model's concept formation was evaluated by utilizing a static altitude.
