Did Palpatine know any spirit-realited techniques before the Rise of the Empire?

Like Essence Transfer? Or did he discover them later?

No one gives a shit about Palpatine anymore. It's all about Snoke now.

We know he could control/summon Sith Spirits, dunno if he has any other showings regarding non-corporeal sans that, though.

He knew Essence Transfer presumably since the rediscovery of Darth Andeddu's holocron, which was in 22 BBY, IIRC.

Did he discover it himself, or was it Dooku?

Chancellor Palpatine spent many years studying ancient Holocrons to learn the secrets of the Sith. The Holocrons enabled him to channel Sith spirits, who taught him how to harness dark-side energy and release lethal bolts of lightning. During the Clone Wars, Palpatine conducted Sith rituals on Coruscant that radiated unnerving ripples in the Force, which caused anxiety among most Jedi throughout the galaxy, but also served to increase Anakin Skywalker's hunger for power.

Dooku did, but I doubt he hid it from his master since, y'know, Sidious knows just about everything Dooku's up to.
