Yeah, that's 50MW, storing power for 15 minutes, so 20MWh. (1).

There's also a similar company: gravicity.

They're a fun academic endeavour. But if gravity provides the potential, water beats them per dollar spend. It's not even close.

So do regular batteries.

I just read wikipedia's portal of current events for world news. The whole articles.

Newspapers I don't read, and i block news articles on social media.

Density doesn't matter much when it comes to grid scale, indeed.

What battery technologies are you thinking of? Zinc-ion? Flow batteries?

Pumped storage is a thing yeah. But might just as well go full hydro, if you're doing the engineering anyways.
