Density and viscosity are typically related.
Color me skeptical that a fluid made from mostly water can have 2.5 times the density of water without a substantial increase in viscosity.
Effectively, you're talking the density of concrete and the viscosity of milk. Must be some new alien chemistry/physics involved here.

- jqpabc123 3y agoExtraordinary claims require extraordinary proof. But even given the benefit of the doubt, there is little advantage over alternatives if you don't just happen to have lots of natural hills/land readily available. A block of concrete has about 2.5 times the density of water and creating one doesn't require any magic chemistry. The land required for a "gravity battery" is only slightly larger than the concrete block itself. https://futurism.com/the-byte/company-builds-facility-lifts-lowers-bricks-store-energy https://futurism.com/the-byte/company-builds-facility-lifts-...
