Patent ID: 8080895

Claim:
A method to produce energy from the compression of at least one working fluid, said method comprising: compressing at least one working fluid to produce a pressurized working fluid in a compressor module; storing the pressurized working fluid in at least one storage module for storage of the pressurized working fluid; releasing a portion of the pressurized working fluid from the at least one storage module through at least one power module; converting a mechanical energy from a moving pressurized working fluid into a rotational energy; and generating a usable form of energy from the at least one power module by a motion of the portion of the pressurized working fluid, wherein the at least one power module can generate a usable form of energy from a source of energy and a means of converting the source of energy into a rotation of at least one turbine disk having a plurality of magnets in the at least one power module, wherein the at least one turbine disk has a plane of rotation and the at least one power module has a plurality of EMF coils each having a center axis in proximity to the plurality of magnets in the at least one turbine disk, with the center axis of each EMF coil substantially perpendicular to the plane of rotation of the at least one turbine disk.
