They do, but if you are asking why it is not done on a larger scale, it has to do with money. For the current energy companies to switch over to a new technology cost money upfront. This will cut into the business's short term profits, and in big business (which is who owns the energy sectors) the short term profits are valued higher than long term.

Is gravitational energy renewable?

It is renewable because you can always raise an object or raise yourself and gain gravitational potential energy. You cannot run out of gravitational potential energy and even now you have some of the the energy because gravity is always pulling you. It is just a matter of how much gravitational potential energy you have. Go on the top Mt. Everest and you will have more gravitational potential energy than most of the people in the world.
