Hydropower plant energy storage project
Pumped-storage hydroelectricity allows energy from intermittent sources (such as solar, wind, and other renewables) or excess electricity from continuous base-load sources (such as coal or nuclear) to be saved for periods of higher demand. [1][2] The reservoirs used with pumped. . 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 project will create an estimated 3,000 construction jobs, contribute millions in local taxes, and boost grid reliability. SRP has been operating pumped storage. .
