Add to ORKGThis thesis characterizes the most common systems for storing electricity, including principles, stages of development and major installations. The thesis is mainly focused on the issue of gravity storage of electricity. The construction of individual types of storages, the phases in which individual projects are right now and their expected development are described here. Part of the thesis is the design of a gravity storage model showing the principle of operation and verification of the possibility of producing a small energy storage in home conditions. Furthermore, the energy and economic possibilities of installing a home gravity storage of energy and a gravity storage on an industrial scale are assessed
