摘要
A conceptually single but integrated multi-faceted structure, effectively resulting in a massive multi-purpose dam, which is constructed from, and which is compartmentalized internally by, compacted inter-connecting and isolatable silos for the purposes of construction, safety and economy, It is preferentially sited on the sea bed and raised high above sea level, to capture wind, wave, tide and solar energies, and convert and store that energy as a water head. It provides the facility to convert that water head into hydro-electricity in a controlled mariner to best subserve the needs of a national grid. The fabric of the silos accommodates the machineries for this. The storage facility can accommodate pumped water from any other machineries outside its boundaries. Provision for covering the silos allows this to be specially contoured so as to enhance flow of wind over the pure wind turbines sited on and over it. Dedicated silos at its periphery provide housing for a particular mechanism in which flotation drums, fitted with marginal turbine cusps, can both rotate and slide up and down on fixed vertical spindles, to capture the energy of tide and wave. The abutting or overlapping lids of the silos offer an Immense sky-facing surface for solar power and the collection of rainwater in silos located at the periphery of the complex. The silos, by virtue of their large numbers and size, their abutment and confluent cover, have the appearance of, and are effectively, islands which may be square kilometers in area and of some three hundred metres in height Such height presents to the turbines thereon the better wind conditions or increased wind shear than occur at sea level.
