Rocky mountain hydro

Article Abstract:

The Rocky Mountain Pumped Storage Project will be the second pumped-storage system in the US, and will serve many people in northwest Georgia. The project will include an upper and lower reservoir, nine dams and two auxiliary pools. The water will fall from the upper reservoir during the day, and will be pumped through pump/turbine units to create electrical power. The water is then pumped back to the upper reservoir at night.

Article Abstract:

Broward County Florida has constructed a $700 million resource-recovery system to solve the solid waste problem. This system has two mass-burn resource-recovery facilities, with a combined processing capacity of 4500 tons a day. The resource-recovery system curtails the solid waste problem and produces sufficient electricity to power 125,000 area homes, and provides job opportunity.
