Pumped Storage Systems

PRINCIPLES OF PUMPED STORAGE Pumped storage schemes store electric energy by pumping water from a lower reservoir into an upper reservoir when there is a surplus of electrical energy in a power grid. During periods of high energy demand the water is released back through the turbines and electricity is generated and fed into the grid.

Water as a Battery: Pumped storage hydropower gets rejuvenated

The released water spins turbines to produce electricity. When energy demand is low, the water can be pumped back to the upper reservoir for storage until additional power generation is needed. This is called open loop. A closed loop can deliver energy further from the source. It does not involve a connection to an outside body of water.
