News from E+E Leader California is testing whether idle oil wells can be repurposed into gravity-based energy storage.
SB 567 allows up to 250 conversions through 2035, requiring leak monitoring,… http://dlvr.it/TN1CGZ #CaliforniaEnergy #GravityStorage #Sustainability #RenewableEnergy #CleanTech
Congrats to Fervo who raised half a $Billion last year and drastically increased drilling speeds.
The Earth's subsurface is the next frontier for massive-scale cleantech, providing #Geothermal, #WhiteHydrogen, and #GravityStorage.

Using gravity to store large amounts of renewable energy isn't a new idea, but using abandoned mines shafts to that effect is relatively recent. The big unknown is whether or not #gravitystorage can work economically; old mine shafts may just be an...
