This scheme strikes me as an over the top think tank fantasy that has escaped out into the wild. What gives me hope, is that the whole scheme is so deranged that it will never be implemented. I just hope no-one in government decides that it might be a good idea to spend some real money looking into this crack pot idea.

I wouldn't be quite that harsh myself, but the government should at least be very wary before committing
any money to it.
The problem is that while pumped storage hydro is not a new idea. Using the sea as part of it, is also not a new idea. The "big idea" with this project is the specific locations they have identified. Until they reveal where and what they are talking about, there isn't anything to talk about - only hot air and marketing.
