What are pumped hydro storage technologies?

New pumped hydro storage technologies—such as variable speed capability—give plant owners even more flexibility by providing grid frequency support in both directions (in turbine and pump modes) as well as quicker response times.

How does hydro storage work?

Hydro’s storage capabilities, specifically pumped storage, can help to match solar and wind generation with demand. Pumped storage plants store energy using a system of two interconnected reservoirs with one at a higher elevation than the other.

How do pumped hydro storage plants store energy?

Pumped hydro storage plants store energy using a system of two interconnected reservoirs with one at a higher elevation than the other.
