While there are many effective solutions for daily energy storage, the most common being batteries, a cost-effective long-term solution is still lacking. Other energy storage methods, such as batteries, lose energy via self-discharge over long periods. Underground Gravity Energy Storage system: a schematic of different system sections.

Right now, production is low in Russia, so the cost has increased. Why, simple the US embraced Fracking to produce bountifully supplies of cheap gas. Needs – Solar and Battery. We also need more power storage in the form of batteries and other technologies to store power when the sun shines and the wind blows.
