Electrical load is centralized in city, especial
in high-rise building which not only has PV
or Wind generation resource but also has a
ignored great gravity potential. The
building above 50 meters are everywhere in
city, there are 17383 buildings above 90
meters in the world. Water is also a
necessary resource that city should have;
water storages in the roof, or water bodies in
waist, and water tanks underground of a
building or a building group, are not difficult
to build them, in fact, water systems
including pump system have already been
implemented in those buildings for water
drink, sanitation, swim pool, fire control,
water drain, etc. The hydro pumping storage
will only add some new spaces, weight-
bearings, new mini hydro pumping systems,
etc. A micro-grid development scheme of
mini-hydro pumping with PV or others is
surveyed and it seems feasible from
technical as well as economic point of view.
