Title: Liquid aquifer energy storage method

Abstract: A liquid aquifer energy storage method by which hot water is collected and stored in underground aquifers during the summer months and made available for heating during winter months. The liquid aquifer energy storage method also allows for the storage of cold water during the winter months for use in cooling during the summer months. The liquid aquifer energy storage method includes heating water and hot and warm zones within the aquifer or aquifers for storage of hot and warm water, respectively. Additionally, the method includes cooling water and cold and cool zones in the aquifer or aquifers for storage of cold and cool water.
