The future of energy storage: how pumped hydro storage can …

How pumped hydro storage works. Pumped hydro storage uses excess electricity during off-peak hours. During this time, it pumps water from a lower reservoir to an upper reservoir. Water is released during peak demand periods. Water flows from the upper reservoir, downhill. As it moves, it passes through turbines to generate electricity.

Pumped-Storage Hydroelectricity

The standard pumped storage consists of a source of water (river, lake) at the location of the generator and a purpose- built reservoir at a higher altitude without any natural inflow (Wikipedia, Pumped-storage hydroelectricity). Water can be pumped up to the reservoir and then released on to the turbines to generate electricity.
