Assume a 1,000 kg mass raised to a height of 4 m, which is about what I think I could achieve using relatively low tech building methods. This will store very close to 40,000 J, which could run a small torch globe for about 11 hours, or a low powered computer for about 1 hour. If you had no disastrously wasteful things such as electric heaters or hot water systems, this could be useful in places not connected to the grid. |
