Hydro and Solar Energy System - Agriculture Model

Description

This is an energy system for water converservation for agriculture while providing infastructure to generate electricity using rain or with sunshine. This allows a farmer to store water for drought seasons and to take water out of the water table during flood seasons. It allows farmers to offset costs on their land by generating power for others. It uses natural flows and incorporates the changing environment using modern technology and old fashioned methods to turn the problem into a solution. 

Attach alternators to the water wheels and add valves to tower bottoms to regulate flow. use attached cylinder. When it is raining anything inside the smaller boxes will flow and allows the towers to fill. When they overflow the energy generation increases and continues. The towers on bottom are connected along each row. Each side shares water. At bases feed channels into agricultural channels. this turns the rain fall into energy, holds water for droughts, and gives control flow on top of solar. This will take water out of the water table and allow farmers to keep their field moisturized through droughts. The cost is offset by energy productin. It powers a farm and has leftover.

This is attached to another publishing and a reference to ongoing series.

Scale Model either:

  1. 1 mm is equal to 1 ft (recommended) = 200 ft x 200 ft
  2. 1 mm is equal to 1 meter. = 600 ft x 600 ft

I encourage all to consider this design to ease issues for farmers and power generation. This is one example how to adapt to new problems. Incorporate the problem into the solution.
