The surplus comes from having too much wind, or too much sunlight.
And not enough demand at that time.
If you're already supplementing your power needs with, say, a coal plant, that can't be throttled down or up on a whim, like a natural gas plant, then you have a surplus of power on your power grid.
Hydro power is great because you can just not use the water, if there's not enough consumption.
You can't just save up sunlight or wind, for later use.
ahhhh ok thanks team
This is a simpler version of the idea. No need to build a dam and water turbine.
Pump water out of the "eggs" with the excess energy, let it rush in (passing through turbines) when needed.
Still qualifies as pumping water up with the excess energy.
Here in portland, then added a water turbine to the main water source pipe from the drinking water supply. So that's an option too, for retrofitting to existing infrastructure
@Fitzydog which Portland?
The bigger, more powerful one.
OR?
lol yeah, ground zero.
I think @M4Gunner is from there too
