Utility Scale Hydro Pump system and method
The Utility Scale Hydro Pump (USHP) is a hydromechanical system that uses a water-moving vehicle in a uniquely configured water tower to generate hydropotential energy and electricity. The vehicle operates in a lower chamber of the water tower. An upper chamber in the water tower has two distinct compartments: a body chamber just above the lower chamber to hold water for the vehicle to pump, and a tall and slender head chamber for the head. Lifting the vehicle from the bottom of the lower chamber pushes up water in the upper chamber into an upper reservoir. As the vehicle is lifted, a void is generated in the lower chamber. The void in the lower chamber is filled with water from a lower reservoir. Releasing water from the upper reservoir operates a turbine generator to generate electricity. Hydro-discharge from a turbine generator is collected in the lower reservoir and recycled.
