Pumped hydroelectric energy storage stores energy in the form of potential energy of water that is pumped from a lower reservoir to a higher level reservoir.
Hydropower is now used principally for hydroelectric power generation, and is also applied as one half of an energy storage system known as pumped-storage hydroelectricity. Hydropower is an attractive alternative to fossil fuels as it does not directly produce carbon dioxide or other atmospheric pollutants and it provides a relatively consistent source of
The energy storage technologies currently applied to hydraulic wind turbines are mainly hydraulic accumulators and compressed air energy storage [66], while other energy storage technologies, such as pumped hydroelectric storage, battery storage and flywheel energy storage, have also been mentioned by some scholars.
The use of hydraulics for energy storage is also mentioned, with examples of hydraulic systems in heavy construction machinery and hydraulic hybrid trucks. The energy in a hydraulic system is typically transferred from a power source to a location where it is needed, but it can also be used for energy storage through the use of
