Patent number: 9482109Abstract: A compressed gas energy storage and release (CGESR) system and method. The system has a gas compressor, a container for storing compressed gas, a pressure engine, and an underground high temperature region. Conduits connect the gas compressor, the container and the pressure engine. The compressed gas drives the pressure engine. An electrical power generating means is operatively connected to said pressure engine to generate electricity. The system further comprises a means to heat at least a portion of one of the conduits utilizing heat from the underground high temperature region to heat the compressed gas therein prior to driving the pressure engine.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2012Date of Patent: November 1, 2016Inventor: Andrew Marks de Chabris

Patent number: 9054559Abstract: A method of delivering electrical energy to a point in an electrical power grid, including accessing a source of energy at a first location and converting the energy into a form of transportable energy. The next step is transporting the transportable energy via a bulk transportation network from the first location to the point on said electrical power grid at a second location having a need for additional electrical power without the transportable energy going through the electrical power grid to get to the point. The next step is converting the form of transportable energy into electrical energy suitable for connecting to the power grid and discharging the electrical energy into the power grid at the second location. A system for delivering electrical energy is also provided. The transportable energy preferably takes the form of charged electrolytes, compressed air or thermal storage units, transported, for example, by way of trains.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2012Date of Patent: June 9, 2015Inventor: Andrew Marks De Chabris

Patent number: 8108294Abstract: Scheduling execution of orders is provided. An order system can enable users to define and modify buy/sell order schedules. The order system can use the order schedules and associated evaluation heuristics to evaluate and update order characteristics such as price and quantity based on user-specified criteria. An order manager, utilizing a schedule supervisor server, can maintain a database containing order schedules and order status information, and execute variable evaluations based on the order schedules and associated evaluation heuristics. A transaction supervisor server can monitor the status of order fills and to update the database periodically.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2010Date of Patent: January 31, 2012Assignee: Intellectual Ventures Fund 67 LLCInventors: Gloriana Marks De Chabris, Andrew Marks De Chabris

Publication number: 20100169238Abstract: A order matching system which allows users to define and modify buy/sell order schedules for execution within one or more transaction destinations. The system uses order schedules and associated evaluation heuristics to evaluate and update order characteristics such as price and quantity based on user-specified criteria. The matching system comprises a user interface which can be connected over the internet to various transaction destinations through a schedule manager and a transaction order interface. The user interface provides users with the ability to obtain information concerning the status of their order account as well as the ability to enter or modify their order schedules. The order manager uses a schedule supervisor server to maintain a database containing order schedules and order status information and to execute variable evaluations on the basis of these order schedules and associated evaluation heuristics.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 8, 2010Publication date: July 1, 2010Inventors: Gloriana Marks De Chabris, Andrew Marks De Chabris

Publication number: 20100049647Abstract: A tradable security comprising a voting right associated with an underlying financial security and an instrument for permitting at least said voting right to be separated from at least some residual rights in the underlying financial security to create a voting right security wherein the ownership and control of the voting right security is tradable separate from the residual rights in the underlying security to permit a value of said voting right security to be established in an open market. In another aspect the invention is directed to a method of creating such a voting right security. In another aspect the invention is directed to a method of clearing and setting trades of the voting right security. In another aspect the invention is directed to a method of creating an index from the voting right security.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 18, 2009Publication date: February 25, 2010Inventor: Andrew Marks De Chabris
