This study proposes a gravity energy storage system and its capacity configuration scheme, which utilizes idle steel blocks from industry overcapacity as the energy storage medium to enhance renewable energy integration and lower corporate electricity costs. . Well, here's the thing - global steel plants consumed over 1,200 TWh of electricity last year, roughly 8% of worldwide industrial energy use [1]. But here's the kicker: about 35% of that energy gets wasted through inefficient load management and grid dependency. That's where steel plant energy. . Although the integration of large-scale energy storage with renewable energy can significantly reduce electricity costs for steel enterprises, existing energy storage technologies face challenges such as deployment constraints and high costs, limiting their widespread adoption.
