4 FAQs about Hydrothermal flow energy storage power station

What is pumped storage hydropower (PSH)?

Pumped storage hydropower (PSH) is a form of clean energy storage that is ideal for electricity grid reliability and stability. PSH complements wind and solar by storing the excess electricity they create and providing the backup for when the wind isn’t blowing, and the sun isn’t shining.

Are pumped storage power stations a viable alternative to traditional energy systems?

The joint operation of wind, solar, water, and thermal power based on pumped storage power stations is not only a supplement and improvement to traditional energy systems but also a crucial step towards a cleaner, more efficient, and more sustainable energy future.

How does a pumped storage power station work?

Penstock is used to connect the two reservoirs. The key components of a pumped storage power station are the hydro turbine and pump, which usually adopt the form of bladed hydraulic machinery. The mechanical energy of the water and the mechanical energy of the runner can be converted to each other.

Why do hydropower stations use reservoir storage?

In operations, hydropower stations utilize their own reservoir storage to redistribute uneven inflows over periods of years, months, weeks, days or hours, thereby controlling when and how much electricity is generated. This ability enables them to quickly respond to the increasing demand for flexible power in electrical grids 2, 3.
