An air-driven generator for generating electric power from movement of a working fluid. Upper ends of buoyancy conduits are in fluidic communication with an upper end of a gravitational distribution conduit, and a lower end of the gravitational distribution conduit is in fluidic communication with lower ends of the buoyancy conduits. An air injection system injects air into the buoyancy conduits. A closed fluid loop is formed with working fluid flowing from the gravitational distribution conduit driving a fluid turbine system that is interposed between the lower ends of the gravitational distribution conduit and the buoyancy conduits. Flow of working fluid can be induced by an injection of air into working fluid disposed in the buoyancy conduits to achieve a generation of power by actuation of the fluid turbine system. An upper chamber can remove entrained air. A Rankin Cycle Generator can receive and be actuated by exhausted air.

The present invention is directed to a system for producing energy via use of gravity. The system is for generating energy, and in particular electrical energy, by utilizing the abundant force of gravity that exists and then integrating such a force into a system design of energy power generation by converting the force of gravity into potential energy then into kinetic energy and from kinetic energy back into potential energy again, by using the system's autonomous methodology of fluid recycling to produce electric power generation in the process.

Energy harvesting system, for harvesting energy from renewable resources, including an array of wind turbines disposed along a towering construction, and plurality of laterally outlying ledges branching outwardly in vertically spaced-apart respective levels, alternately lined-up along the towering construction between the wind turbines. Each of ledges includes an upper ledge surface and/or a lower ledge surface, slanted at a slope for deflecting ingoing wind and/or diffusing outgoing wind toward and away from the adjacent wind turbine, respectively. A photovoltaic (PV) solar panel layout is disposed on upper ledge surface, and includes at least one PV solar panel for absorbing and converting solar energy into electricity. The system may include one or more energy storage modules, usually operational for being lifted along towering construction. The towering construction may include wind and solar sensors and may be rotatable, so as to adjust horizontal orientation of towering construction for optimal energy harvesting.

An energy storage device for a power plant includes a heat exchanger arranged in a floating manner in a lower basin that is fillable with water via a first supply line. A second supply line supplies water from the lower basin. A third supply line is in fluid communication with the heat exchanger. A heat pump provides coolant to the heat exchanger via the third supply line such that energy is extracted via the heat exchanger while freezing of the water in the lower basin or in the form of sensible heat from the water in the lower basin, wherein the energy is passed on to a consumer for heat dissipation or for cold dissipation.

A pumped storage power plant for a temporary reversible storage of energy, such as the energy available from wind power stations and/or photovoltaic systems that is fluctuating over time. The pumped storage power plant is designed as an underwater pumped storage power plant, wherein the ocean assumes the function of an upper storage basin and a pressure tank placed on the ocean floor serves as a lower storage basin. The storage of the electric energy takes place through pumping water out of the inside of the pressure tank against the hydrostatic water pressure on the ocean floor.
