Aaron Dover - The truth about the Pyramids of Giza?
Were pyramids actually powerplants and harnessing atmospheric energy?
Dover is talking about batteries at eight minutes, but there are different ways to store energy, which doesn't necessarily have to be in cells; and actually I've heard gravity batteries are a very efficient way to store energy, just impractical in many situations.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_battery
A gravity battery is a type of energy storage device that stores gravitational energy—the potential energy E given to an object with a mass m when it is raised against the force of gravity of Earth (g, 9.8 m/s²) into a height difference h.
In a common application, when renewable energy sources such as wind and solar provide more energy than is immediately required, the excess energy is used to move a mass upward against the force of gravity to generate gravitational potential energy. When customers eventually require more energy than the sources can provide, the mass is lowered to convert the potential energy into electricity using an electric generator. Though solid masses such as concrete blocks can be used, more commonly, pumped-storage hydroelectricity generation involves pumping water to higher elevations and later guiding it through water turbines to generate electricity.
- Pendulum clock driven by three weights as "gravity battery"
When I was looking at the WTC building layout, the thing that got me was the design of the elevators. It did seem to suggest the towers where built to move masses of people up and down - from a facts and figures website: "There were 198 elevators in the Twin Towers and 15 miles of elevator shafts." - that would be, of course, 99 elevators in each tower. But what if it wasn't people they were moving up and down?
As you say, looking at the towers documentation, only a handful of the floors seem evident as existing, therefore the elevator design seems a major over-kill; almost like the intension was to build full-occupation, but this was abandoned after the elevators were installed. Dover suggests they were all false doors, which might well be true. But wouldn't it be an elegant solution if the battery storage was actually in the form of weights being moved up and down the towers? Like a big grandfather clock.
Below is a earlier post explaining the elevators according to the official story. Considering the vast number, there only seems to have been one set of two, direct from ground to the Observation Deck or Restaurant on the top floor of each building.

The second diagram is the elevator area of floor 44. If we start with the top row of twelve elevators again, these are the express elevators that go to the floor 78 skylobby. The four orange outer ones on both side do not stop at floor 44, but the four middle blue ones do; this is why it's called a transfer lobby. So, if I'm on floor 49 again, and this time I want to go to floor 88, then let's work it out; I could do it in two ways. The long way, I would first get the local elevator down to floor 44, and then the express elevator down to ground, I then walk over to the bay of elevators for the top third of the building, and get the express elevator to floor 78 skylobby, and then walk over to the bay of local elevators that serve floor 88 and get one of those to my destination.
Because that's quite mental, the 'transfer lobby' was included in the design. So this time, again starting at floor 49, I get the local elevator down to floor 44, and this time I walk across to the transfer lobby; here I can get one of those four blue express elevators up to the floor 78 skylobby, there will be no other stops. Once I'm at 78, I can go to the bay of local elevators that serve floor 88 to get to my destination. So the transfer lobby goes to ground, 44 and 78, but not 107. That row of express elevators all stop at 78 according to the floor 95 diagram.
When we add the information from the floor 95 diagram we can assign all the areas that look like elevators. We see from ground level, there were eight express elevators that went to floor 78 skylobby only (orange) and eight express elevators that went to floor 44 skylobby only (yellow). Four express elevators went to both 44 and 78 (blue) The green express elevators are the only ones that went strait from ground to floor 107, I suspect that while the diagrams to list them with openings on 44 and likely 78, they couldn't actually be called from these floors. They were the express elevators we see videos of people getting from ground to the Observation Deck or Windows on the World. On the floor 95 diagram we see them highlighted in pink. The yellow areas on the 95 diagram are service shafts, so not for people. The interesting one is the one I've highlighted purple in the top diagram. It's called 'Elevator 50' and I doubt it was for public use. Because it appears on all diagrams, I suspect it was a staff service lift and could stop on any floor.
One final point, I seriously wonder if, as well as no floors, there were no windows...think of the Eiffel Tower structure. This would therefore explain why the window holes were designed to be so narrow. Below, I'm guessing a bit of a coded tell from the gelatin boys.
(...) the tower windows, similar to the narrow windows in Yamasaki´s Michigan Gas Company Building in Detroit, were narrow for the same reasons. With floor to ceiling windows. Yamasaki felt comfortable only if the window width was narrower than his own shoulder span. According to the Roths, Yamasaki had a full-scale model of the window in his office, and by way of demonstration pushed Malcolm Levy into it; Levy´s shoulder stuck. (...)
Designed narrower than a person's shoulders as a safety measure...because there were no windows in the window holes. If this is so, the gelatin guys didn't have to remove a window to use their balcony.
