Response to why couldn't this closed loop work?

<t>Thanks for the dc generator, I wasn't taking advantage of cheap high efficiency solutions made commercially. If we could only solve the problem of storing the energy without having a lake on a mountain (although not a bad solution if you have one!)The original idea was however based on a system t...

the oxygen can be stored as rust (saltwater , steel , O2 = FeO2 but under better conditions as Fe2O3(I'm just guessing here , its been a long time since school)

Reference the hydrogen storage .. there is promising research on a metal hybrid storage system using (I think) aluminium and magnesium which needs neither pressure or cooling to store and to release the stored hydrogen just a little heat (how much I don't know)

why couldn't this closed loop work?

<t>I've read with great interest the various points put by other members.<br/> It seems that the biggest problem with a solar Stirling engine is that<br/> A)When the temp differences close up the plant stops working<br/> B)I can produce energy I don't really need in summer but not in winter<br/> <br...
