Abstract A system for discharging water to a turbine to generate power, the system including a rigid container for containing water, a valve for discharging water from the lower end of the rigid container, and a turbine to be driven by discharged water. The rigid container is configured to contain a water column having a height sufficient to cause elastic compression of the water and to accommodate propagation of compression waves in the water column. The valve has an open/close cycle with a time duration in the range of about 10 to about 200 milliseconds, to facilitate generation of compression waves in the water column, and opening and closing of the valve is dynamically controlled by a feedback controller.
