MIT researchers propose subsea version of pumped hydro for renewable energy storage

Green Car Congress

The key to this Ocean Renewable Energy Storage (ORES) system is the placement of 30-meter-diameter hollow concrete spheres on the seafloor under the wind turbines. The 1,000 wind turbines that the spheres could anchor could, on average, replace a conventional on-shore coal or nuclear plant. MIT has filed for a patent on the system.
