The invention relates to a transport installation with reduced energy consumption meant to reduce the energy consumption by at least 50% upon transporting goods and materials, to reduce the personnel and environment pollution, intended to operate 24 h a day, irrespective of the weather conditions. According to the invention, the installation consists of a pipe () having a diameter larger than 0.5 m, an upper loading-unloading chamber (), a lower loading-unloading chamber () provided with three gates () and a pressure-equalizing valve (), a collecting vessel () and several containers () having a spherical shape in order to prevent them from blocking upon moving through the pipe (), said motion being ensured by the resultant of the container weight and the buoyancy, the installation being filled with water. |
