You have only one staff here (in your system)!

I think what you want is to increase the space between _systems_.
Have a look at NR 4.1.4 Flexible vertical spacing \paper variables
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/flexible-vertical-spacing-_005cpaper-variables.html

\paper {
  system-system-spacing =
    #'((basic-distance . 16)
       (minimum-distance . 12)
       (padding . 1)
       (stretchability . 60))
}

Cheers,
Xavier
