The present invention discloses a gravity and buoyancy-based renewable energy generation system (100), comprising vertically oriented J-shaped water columns (102) arranged in parallel rows with shared walls. Each column houses multiple steel buckets (104). A mechanical filling and transfer system (106), which includes a horizontal circular disk and straight transfer channel (112), facilitates continuous loading of buckets with the high-density material. Loaded buckets are stacked within an inclined gate stack (108) at a lower end of each column to initiate gravitational descent. Upon completing the energy cycle, emptied buckets form a vertical stack in an air pipe positioned above rim pulleys for redirection into the next descent cycle. Additionally, vertical lifting column (110) elevates discharged high-density materials using hydrostatic pressure derived from the surrounding water column. The system (100) converts vertical mass movement into mechanical power, enabling efficient and repeatable energy generation through synergistic use of gravity and buoyancy forces.

The pumped storage power plant continuously generates an excess of energy (current) during operation, the level of the excess being dependent on the size of the plant. The mode of operation is simple and efficient. During operation, the pumped storage power plant consumes only a very small proportion of the energy / current that it produces, that is to say consumes less energy. Photovoltaic elements, which allow the start-up of the plant, fails or lead none of the energy yield, are described in the request.
