Moriah has a buyer; Hydropower/ overnight storage. < on 12/1/2005 12:31 AM > | Reply with Quote
As I understand it, the way this works is that Hydro plants producing excess power overnight would transmit it to Moriah. That power would be used to pump the water our of the mineshaft overnight, then releasing it through turbines during peak rates, putting it into the grid to turn a profit. Never heard of such a thing. But within a couple years say goodbye to the building I believe on top of the Joker shaft.
