Pumped storage stores electricity in the form of potential energy. The basic principle of energy conversion is shown in Fig. 1. In pump mode (charging), electrical energy is taken from the electrical grid to feed a motor that mechanically drives a pump. The water is pumped from the lower basin into the upper basin.
The company will deploy its gravity energy storage system, GraviStore, to generate and store electricity by raising and lowering weights inside an unused 1,738-foot-deep auxiliary shaft along the 0.9-mile-deep mine. ABB installed this hoist at the Pyhäsalmi Mine in the early 2000s. Image used courtesy of ABB (Page 5)
