The invention provides an energy accumulation system and method comprising at least one reservoir, for storing sea water, elevated above sea level and located in the vicinity of sea shore. At least one turbine is located in the vicinity of the sea level and substantially below the level of at least one of said reservoirs, said turbine being connected to at least one power generator. At least one conduit connecting said at least one reservoir to said turbine, wherein the downward flow of sea water from the reservoir through the at least one conduit serves to engage with and rotate said turbine and generator for the purpose of generating electrical power. The invention also describes novel methods to prevent seawater corrosion and build up of marine organisms in the energy accumulation system. The system can be fully or partially energised by the energy from intermittent renewable sources such as wind. |
