In the Strait of Messina, off the coast of Reggio Calabria, a system has gone into operation that could help change the way we store renewable energy. It consists of a large floating tank<\/a><\/strong>, fifty meters in diameter, that uses gravity and the depth of the sea to store electricity<\/strong>. The Milan-based startup Sizable Energy<\/a> installed its prototype at the Natural Ocean Engineering Laboratory of the Universit\u00e0 Mediterranea<\/strong>, completing a logistical operation that required a 350-metric-ton crane with a reach of about fifty meters.<\/p>\n\n
