A system for collecting, generating, and transmitting Gigawatt scale energy is provided. The system comprises a geographically dispersed network comprising a plurality of nodes, each node comprising: a water source; renewable energy sources comprising: a wind turbine string of a plurality of wind turbines; and a solar photovoltaic string; a nodal substation in electrical communication with the renewable energy sources. The nodal substation comprises: at least one electrolyser in electrical communication with the renewable energy sources, the at least one electrolyser configured to convert water from the water source into hydrogen, or hydrogen compound, with electricity from the renewable energy sources; a compressor to compress hydrogen, or hydrogen compound, from the at least one electrolyser into a pipeline fluidly connecting each node. The nodal substation is positioned a distance from the renewable energy sources such that energy transfer efficiency to a load exceeds traditional high voltage power transmission.

A system for supplementing the electric power needed by a pump jack electric motor, thereby reducing the electric power purchased from the local utility or power supplier. The system comprises a solar photovoltaic system, or other forms of renewable energy, and regenerated power from the electric motor or drive. The system can be both on-grid and off-grid. Battery banks and capacitor banks may be used to store energy.

A modular pump system permits combining multiple discrete pump assemblies in serial and/or parallel configurations to tailor system output to user needs. The assemblies may be combined by hand quickly, without the needs for tools, to permit use in remote areas.

A solar pump system comprises a solar module configured to generate DC power from sunlight, a water pump, an inverter configured to convert the DC power into AC power in order to drive the water pump, and a controller configured to generate a control signal for controlling an output frequency of the AC power. The controller compares the DC link voltage with a first reference level, adjusts the output frequency of the AC power, if the DC link voltage is greater than the first reference level, and determines the output frequency to prevent the DC link voltage from being equal to or less than a second reference level, if the DC link voltage is less than the first reference level.

An adapter for a load cell in a rod pump system includes an outer shell including a mounting portion configured to attach to the load cell on a polished rod, a power supply configured to provide power to the adapter and the load cell, the power supply including a solar panel on the outer shell, a cable configured to connect to the load cell, the adapter configured to provide power to the load cell via the cable, and the adapter configured to receive a load signal from the load cell via the cable, a signal processor configured to receive and process the load signal and to output load signal data representative of a load experienced by the load cell, and a wireless transmitter to transmit the load signal data.

A pumping device for liquids is described which comprises a tank for liquids, from which a feeding pipe of a pump with a solar panel draws. The tank consists of a supporting frame with tubular uprights and upper and lower horizontal connection lengths, which supports and surrounds a flexible bag for containing liquids and has an upper connection crossbar of the upper horizontal lengths of the supporting frame, on which the pump with solar panel is mounted. The bag has a lower filling hole or mouth, in which the feeding pipe can be inserted and an overflow hole made in the upper of part of its side wall in position lower than said mouth.

The wheeled pumping station includes a front axle and a rear axle with wheels that mobilize a pumping station supported via a chassis. The pumping station is enclosed within a housing. The housing supports a pump from which an intake hose descends down. The pump is wired to a powering member. The powering member is also wired to at least one solar panel provided on a top surface of the housing. The powering member is wired to a computer, GPS unit, and transceiver. The computer is able to track location and maneuver the wheeled pumping station to different locations as needed. The pump is connected to both the intake hose and an irrigation pipe such that water collected via the pump is removed from the land, and transferred via the irrigation pipe to another location.

A pumped storage hydropower apparatus includes a housing and at least one pump disposed within the housing. The at least one pump is configured to operate in a first mode of operation or a second mode of operation based on an operation condition including at least one of a time or a price of electrical power from a remote electrical power source. In the first mode of operation, the at least one pump receives a first flow of water from a first water storage unit, transports the first flow to a second water storage unit, and generates electrical power for transmission to the remote electrical power source. In the second mode of operation, the at least one pump receives a second flow of water from the second water storage unit, and transports the second flow to the first water storage unit using electrical power from the remote electrical power source.
