An apparatus for storage of potential energy using water from a deep body of water is described. The apparatus comprises one module (20) including a cylinder (1), a piston (2) slidably connected to the cylinder, a column (3) for storing the water from the sea received through an inlet (4) being in communication with the cylinder/piston, and a connecting tube (5) which mutually connects the cylinder and the column. The apparatus further comprises driving means for reciprocally displacing the piston in relation to the cylinder, wherein the driving means is a crankshaft (6) drivingly connected to the piston and at least one flywheel (7) mounted to the crankshaft for counteracting the pressure as result of the water stored in the column.

La présente invention concerne un appareil de stockage d'énergie potentielle utilisant de l'eau à partir d'une masse d'eau profonde. L'appareil comporte un module (20) comprenant un cylindre (1), un piston (2) relié en coulissement au cylindre, une colonne (3) de stockage d'eau à partir de la mer à travers un orifice d'entrée (4) étant en communication avec l'ensemble cylindre/piston, et un tube de connexion (5) qui relie le cylindre et la colonne l'un à l'autre. L'appareil comporte en outre des moyens d'entraînement permettant de déplacer le piston dans un mouvement alternatif par rapport au cylindre, dans lesquels les moyens d'entraînement sont constitués par un vilebrequin (6) relié en entraînement au piston et au moins un volant (7) fixé au vilebrequin à l'encontre de la pression produite par l'eau stockée dans la colonne.
