For a home energy solution I am looking at PV and maybe a wind turbine. I live on a hill. Would it be worth having a water tank at the top and bottom of the hill and use surplus electricity to pump to the top tank and then use the pump as a generator at night? Would this be much less efficient that battery storage?
