Pumped Hydro Storage was started by enthusiasts with a background from renewables, and with a strong desire to make a difference in the energy transition. The World’s Most Sustainable Balancing Power Enabling a Fossil-Free Generation Pumped Hydro’s and SENS team has an extensive experience of renewable energy development and planning
Pumped-storage schemes currently provide the most commercially important means of large-scale grid energy storage and improve the daily capacity factor of the generation system. The relatively low energy density of PHES systems requires either a very large body of water or a large variation in height.
Pumped storage plants provide a means of reducing the peak-to-valley difference and increasing the deployment of wind power, solar photovoltaic energy and other clean energy generation into the grid .
The pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) is a well-established and commercially-acceptable technology for utility-scale electricity storage and has been used since as early as the 1890s.
On conventional pumped storage development most experience has been developed by USA, Japan, Ukraine, Germany and France. It is worth to mention that the USA and Japan provide about 40% of the total storage capacity through pumped hydroelectric storage systems.
Pumped Hydro’s innovative solution means a more efficient and flexible pumped storage technology, which is installed in disused mines. This way, the mines are transformed into a positive asset in the green transition. At the same time, costs can be kept down by using existing infrastructure such as access points to the power grid and roads.
