The
technically new concept of a wind- and solar- farm incorporating a hydrostatic
power station results in the
following advantages (as compared with existing solutions and patents):
1.
Independence from weather situations, due to expandable solar planes and power
station
within the tower.
2.
Daily surplus energy generated by wind and solar sources can be stored and used
for
covering peak demand.
3.
External electrical power surplus will be stored by the hydrostatic power
station and will
be delivered at peak demand.
4.
Essentially improved effectivity due to direct-driven generators as well as
fluid pumps.
5.
Reduced foundation cost due to vertical load only, horizontal load is taken by
the bracings.
6. The
concept may be a solution to utilise nowadays unreachable areas of deeper sea.
7.
Electric wires will be attached to the top and along the bracings. ( no underwater cables ).
8.
Further application will be (re-)cultivation of deserts and arid land and
glacier coverage
9.
Space saving by additional usage of the same place, up to now used for the wind park only.
10.
The rolled up solar sails are placed in main wind direction with minimum wind resistance.
