  • Deep Water Pressure Electricity Generating Method, Apparatus and System
    Publication number: 20200256309
    Abstract: A method and device are provided for generating electricity from a body of water including a power generating tube having inside walls, outside walls, a top and an inlet at the bottom. The tube includes a neck comprising an inlet to the bottom and an outlet open at the top. A gate valve blocking the inlet is opened by remote control signals. Alternatively, an explosive plug blocking the inlet is removed by an explosion initiated by a remote control device. The power generating tube loaded with a means for generating electricity and empty of water is installed in the water with the inlet located deep in the water below the top that is positioned above the surface of the water.
