Abstract
A mass displacement electricity generator, having a tower and a first mass suspended by the tower for falling and lifting. The first mass is suspended by a pulley arrangement including a first set of pulleys fixed to the tower above the first mass and a second set of pulleys fixed to the first mass. A cable extends through the first and second sets of pulleys and one end of the cable is fixed to one of the tower or to the first mass. A winch includes a barrel about which the cable winds off as the first mass falls and winds on as the first mass lifts. The winch is in driving connection with a flywheel so that as the first mass falls, the cable winds off the barrel and barrel rotation drives the flywheel to rotate. The flywheel is in driving connection with a generator so that rotation of the flywheel drives the generator for generating electrical energy.
