Paper Summary

The article discusses a new way to store energy called Buoyancy Energy Storage Technology (BEST). This technology uses the deep ocean to store energy from wind and solar power. BEST can store energy for a week and is cheaper than other storage options. It costs between 50 to 100 USD per stored kWh of energy. BEST can also compress hydrogen efficiently.
