Utility Scale Hydro Pump System and Method
Utility Scale Hydro Pump (USHP) uses a vehicle in a uniquely configured water tower to generate hydro potential energy and electricity. The vehicle operates in the lower chamber of the water tower. The upper chamber has two distinct compartments: the 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. As the vehicle is lifted from the lower chamber to pump water in the upper chamber into an upper reservoir, a void in the lower chamber is produced simultaneously. The void is the reduced vehicle volume in the lower chamber and gets filled with recycled water from the lower reservoir. USHP releases water from the upper reservoir to generate electricity, and hydro discharge from a hydro turbine generator is collected and recycled in the lower reservoir.
