Takeaways:
- A Dutch startup called Ocean Grazer has created an undersea storage field which is similar to a pumped hydro storage, except that it’s underwater.
- The ocean battery uses renewable energy to pump the water uphill to a reservoir and when the electricity is needed, gravity will release the water downhill to hydropower generators.
- “Our solution is embedded into the seabed and can be installed in between or next to existing and new wind farms to enhance the stability, reliability, and profitability of your project,” Ocean Grazer explains.
