What is Pumped Storage Hydropower? Pumped storage hydropower (PSH) is a type of hydroelectric energy storage. It is a configuration of two water reservoirs at different elevations that can generate power as water moves down from one to the other (discharge), passing through a turbine. The system also requires power as it pumps water back into
In this pilot project, the foundations of the wind turbines are used as upper reservoirs of a PHS facility. They are connected to a pumped-storage power station in the valley that can provide up to 16 MW in power. The electrical storage capacity of the power plant is designed for a total of 70 MWh (Max Bögl, 2018).
