Pumped hydro storage is one of the most proven energy storage technologies we have. It comes with a range of benefits and it great for long term storage. However, it requires very specific geography that isn't always available. This is why RheEnergise have been working on a new high density fluid that can be used instead of water - providing 2.5 times the energy density!
