Abstract: An optical power transfer system for powering a remote mobility system for multiple missions comprising a high power source and a chilling station connected to a laser source. The laser source transmits a high optical energy to a beam switch assembly via an optical fiber. The beam switch assembly is optically connected to actively cooled fiber spoolers. Docking stations are adapted for securing the fiber spoolers until alternatively ready for use by a remote mobility system. The remote mobility system is optically connected to the fiber spoolers and has a receiving port adapted for securing the fiber spoolers thereon. The fiber spooler transmits the optical energy to a power conversion system which converts the optical energy received to another usable form of energy. More than one power source may be used where the remote mobility system transfers from one source to another while maintaining an operational radius to each source.

Abstract: The present invention is a method and apparatus for the subsurface storage of carbon dioxide in reservoir formations, to provide energy storage for electrical load balancing, and to enable the enhanced recovery of hydrocarbon fluids from the subsurface formations by gravity drainage. Multiple propped vertical inclusions are propagated into hydrocarbon fluid bearing reservoir formations at various vertical depths from well casings. Carbon dioxide is injected and stored in the formations. At off-peak power demand periods, carbon dioxide is pumped by a pump/turbine from the low energy formation into a deeper high energy formation, and at peak power demand periods the carbon dioxide is released from the high energy formation and flows to the low energy formation, driving the pump/turbine to generate electricity. Hydrocarbon fluids are produced from the formations depending on the formation conditions. Additional carbon dioxide is injected into the system as hydrocarbon fluids are extracted.
