Overview

The Water Battery is a technology which bridges the gap between clean energy technology, and the Fossil-fuel world. The Water Battery is an industrial strength battery technology allowing variable clean energy sources like Solar and Wind to be stored safely, then tapped on-demand to power electrical loads 24/7. The Water Battery is the missing link for industrially storing and retrieving electrical energy first produced from variable clean energy sources such as Solar PV and Wind. The Water Battery provides the storage and industrial strengths required by our modern civilization. Being scalable, the Water Battery can be used in residential, commercial and industrial settings. The Water Battery is ideal for mini-grids. The Water Battery is non-toxic, can be unendingly charged and discharged, can be scaled to industrial strengths, and works in any climate. The Water Battery can be charged with any source of electricity, but clean energy generators are the clear choice. Solar Photovoltaic Panels (PV) and Wind Generators are variable in their outputs, but have no fuel costs in the energy they produce. The Water Battery takes this variable Solar and Wind electrical energy and drives an Electrolyser. The Electrolyser electro-chemically disassociates Water into Hydrogen gas, and Oxygen gas which are each stored separately in tanks. In this Electrical Power Plant electricity is produced at any time on-demand, by recombining the gases in a Fuel Cell which delivers the electrical power, and gives you most of the water back. Repeat. The Water-Battery has no moving parts, no emissions, no toxicity, no soil, air, or water impacts. This battery technology is silent, safe, uses no combustion, no noise, no particulates, no Mercury, no VOCs, no Nitrates, no Sulfates, no radiation. No need for pipelines, no drilling, no mining, no fracking, no railroads, no tankers, none of the usual aspects of powering our world.
