Abstract

An energy storage system (2) comprising a weighted object (6) suspended from a cable (8), a lifting device (10, 16) connected to the weighted object by way of the cable and arranged to move the weighted object through a substantially vertical distance, and means for generating electrical energy (16) connected to the lifting device. The system preferably comprises a guidance system (18, 20) for guiding the weighted object.
