Giant towers of building blocks rising into the sky and huge vats packed with volcanic rock or molten salt are being used as massive batteries.

We meet the entrepreneurs and scientists who are trying to harness the fundamental forces of physics to power the world. Presenter: Tom Colls Image: The Energy Vault tower (c/o Energy Vault)
