1. An energy accumulator and rectifier equipment which enables the optimization of plant factors associated with renewable energy generating facilities, which are affected due to irregularities in the energy availability form natural resources, wherein such equipment comprises a storage tank or compressed air accumulator which is fed from air flows from apparatuses which transform renewable energy into compressed air and convey it to such accumulator to deliver it on a continuous basis; a series of vertical tubes (cylinders) filled with non compressible fluid so that it can displace movable elements, forming a group; each group is in connection with another similar group at both the upper level and the lower level by means of a fluid circulation pipes and by means of a pipe of smaller diameter, at the upper and lower portion, for air circulation; the fluid circulation pipes of every group are attached to a common pipe at the upper level which conveys the fluid toward a turbine-generator to produce electricity and a common pipe at the lower level to recirculate fluid toward the cylinders. 2. An energy accumulator and rectifier equipment according to claim 1, wherein said movable elements are tubes of smaller diameter and length than tubes filled with fluid and which form a seal therewith, since they include perimetral rings specially designed for this purpose; each movable element includes in the upper cover thereof an air releasing valve. 3. An energy accumulator and rectifier equipment according to claim 1, wherein each group comprises two cylinders and two movable elements as well as retention valves on the upper portion to control fluid flows in both directions of the cylinder-movable element group. 4. An energy accumulator and rectifier equipment according to claim 1, wherein said equipment comprises a system for programming air injection into the movable elements by means of electro-actuated valves and security devices which control their ascending movement. 5. A marine apparatus for electric power generation from ocean waves which comprises improved plant factors, wherein it comprises: energy accumulator and rectifier equipment which enables the optimization of plant factors associated with renewable energy generating facilities, which are affected due to the irregularities of the natural resource energy availability, wherein such equipment comprisesa storage tank or compressed air accumulator which is fed from air flows from apparatuses that transform renewable energy into compressed air and convey it toward such accumulator;a series of vertical tubes (cylinders) filled with non compressible fluid so that it can displace movable elements, forming a group; each group is in connection with another similar group at both the upper level and the lower level by means of a fluid circulation pipes and by means of a pipe of smaller diameter, at the upper and lower portion, for air circulation; the fluid circulation pipes of every group are attached to a common pipe at the upper level which conveys the fluid toward a turbine-generator to produce electricity and a common pipe at the lower level to recirculate fluid toward the cylinders;a floating pontoon with an articulated arm,a cylinder with pneumatic or hydraulic piston associated with pneumatic equipment to generate compressed air, a mooring system comprising mooring dolphins and breasting dolphins. 6. An apparatus for harnessing eolic energy to generate electric power from wind, comprising improved plant factors, wherein: an energy accumulator and rectifying equipment which enables the optimization of plant factors associated with renewable energy generating facilities, which are affected by the irregularities of energy availability from natural resources, wherein such accumulator equipment comprisesa storage tank or compressed air accumulator which is fed from air flows from apparatuses that transform renewable energy into compressed air and convey it toward such accumulator;a series of vertical tubes (cylinders) filled with non compressible fluid so that it can displace movable elements, forming a group; each group is in connection with another similar group both at the upper level and the lower level by means of a fluid circulation pipes and by means of a pipe of smaller diameter, at the upper and lower portion, for air circulation; the fluid circulation pipes of every group are attached to a common pipe at the upper level which conveys the fluid toward a turbine-generator to produce electricity and a common pipe at the lower level to recirculate fluid toward the cylinders;a sail or flag vertically arranged which faces wind,a vertical screen located parallel to the sail and secured by a support,a vertical axis which crosses the sail and makes it pivot, anda system of arms and pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder associated with pneumatic equipment to produce compressed air generated by this motion. 7. Method for generating electric power from renewable sources which uses an energy accumulator and rectifier equipment according to claim 1, which enables the optimization of plant factors which are affected by the irregularities of energy availability from natural resources, wherein such method is characterized in that this accumulating equipment regulates the energy from apparatuses which transform renewable energy into compressed air and convey it toward said accumulator, wherein such air will go into every movable element of a group, by means of air pipes and valves, which are arranged at the lower level of each cylinder and which are open when the movable element is located at the lowest level of its trajectory so that the necessary air is injected to fill the available space; once the movable element is filled with air, the security device is open to allow such element to go up displacing the covering fluid thanks to its push, thus generating the flow which can be used in a Pelton turbine or the like which is attached by pipes to each cylinder; when the movable element goes up to the cylinder upper level, it will not be able to propel fluid flow toward the turbine due to the design of the device; in this moment, it will strike an air chamber that will cause the movable element kinetic energy to be transformed into compressed air which will be conveyed toward the accumulator by means of pipes and will be controlled by retention valves arranged at the accumulator inlet; this will be also used as the brake for the displacement of the movable element; this cycle is repeated for each movable element, thus generating a turbine steady flow, since the incoming air to movable element is sustained; the movable element which has gone up to the cylinder upper limit, gets rid of the air stored inside by means of a valve housed in the upper cover which is open in that moment to later be displaced to the cylinder lower end which is dragged by the movable element which is traveling up, since they are secured by a means such a cable, to be filled with compressed air again allowing the cycle to continue.
