ABSTRACT:
A system for generating electrical energy which combines water power and combustible fuel in a manner to utilize, according to varying conditions, the best combination of energy sources for maximum economy of electrical generation, including an elevated body of water having connection to a hydraulic generating means positioned at a lower elevation, the water flowing from the body of water to the hydro-electric generating means through a penstock, a fuel powered gas turbine generator adapted to use combustible fuel and compressed air as a means of generating electricity, a hydraulic air compressor means adjacent to the body of water, a penstock having a water inlet connected to the body of water and having a water outlet, the hydraulic head of which is below the water inlet, and an air outlet connected to the gas turbine generator and means to selectably divert the water flow to the hydro-electric generator and/or the hydraulic air compressor so that electricity may be generated selectably utilizing the energy source of water power and combustible fuel according to parameters of availability and economics.
