About Us

GUESS (Green Underground |Unique Energy Storage System) A start-up small business developing Power Storage Projects at operating or abandoned mines or industrial sites to provide these companies additional income streams from their assets.
Initial focus is HydroPower storage at Midwestern coal mines, with additional interest in Power Storage Projects in rural or remote areas that may not only include HydroPower Storage, but may also include Ultra-Capacitor Battery Systems that could be coupled with Gravity Power Storage at any type of site.

GUESS focuses on conceptual as well as project design of new Power Storage Technologies that goes beyond batteries. Included is individual site engineering evaluations to determine the potential for a Power Storage Project.
GUESS is comprised of a small group of people with over 100 years of experience in the power and energy development and production business. We have experience in financing, engineering, construction, operations and government relations needed to successfully design and complete Projects.

About

Wind and Solar and other sources of electricity supply at times exceed demand. Therefore, in times of high electricity supply, water is pumped from the lower reservoir to the upper reservoir. At peak times when electric demand exceeds supply, water from the upper reservoir is released to the lower reservoir. This generates electricity while the water moves down through a turbine.

How Is Electricity Generated?

Pumped Storage Hydro (PSH) plants operate similarly to conventional hydropower plants. However, there is a significant difference between the two: Unlike conventional hydropower plants, PSH can use the same water repeatedly. Therefore, when power from the plant is required to generate electricity, the water flows from the upper reservoir. Gravity enables turbine(s) to rotate generators to produce electricity. Then, the water rests in the lower reservoir until the electricity demand is low. At this point, separate pump(s), or the turbine reverse to repeat the process of pumping water into the upper reservoir. The process is then reset so the water can generate electricity as and when required.
