The puzzle of wind power is that it is often strongest at night, when the demand for power is low. Siting a wind farm on top of one of the many played-out lodes in the windy Midwestern plains or the nation's mountainous areas could help solve this problem. Pumped storage uses wind power to shunt water from lower to upper reservoir tanks placed in mine shafts. When power is needed, water can be channeled down through turbines that create electricity on demand. A proposed pumped-storage project in Germany's Harz Mountains would store up to 400 megawatts of power, enough to supply 40,000 homes.
