Gravity Battery

Gravity Battery – Sustainable Energy Storage System

Introducing the Gravity Battery, a revolutionary prototype that showcases how gravity can be harnessed as a clean, renewable, and reliable source of energy storage. This educational and functional model is designed to help students, hobbyists, and innovators understand the fundamental concept of gravitational energy and its real-world applications.

Key Features:

• Gravity-Powered Energy Storage: Utilizes potential energy from a lifted mass to generate electricity as it descends slowly over time.
• No Chemical Batteries Required: Operates without lithium, lead-acid, or other chemical cells – making it a greener and more sustainable solution.
• Demonstrates Clean Energy Concepts: Perfect for science fairs, school projects, or educational institutions to teach alternative energy storage methods.
• Fully DIY and Modular: Built using simple components including a DC motor, gears, weight, pulley system, and a generator. Easy to upgrade or scale.
• Hands-on Learning Tool: Encourages curiosity, innovation, and understanding of mechanical-to-electrical energy conversion.

How It Works:

This gravity battery consists of a suspended weight connected to a gear system and a small generator. As the weight slowly descends due to gravity, the gears rotate a motor acting as a generator. This mechanical motion generates electricity, which can power small devices such as LEDs. Once the weight reaches the bottom, it can be lifted manually or with renewable sources like solar-powered motors to restart the process.
