Canberra pumped hydro storage
Designed to tackle the intermittency of wind and solar power, this pumped hydro initiative could store enough electricity to power 200,000 homes for 8 hours—equivalent to keeping Sydney Opera House lit for 18 months straight!. Designed to tackle the intermittency of wind and solar power, this pumped hydro initiative could store enough electricity to power 200,000 homes for 8 hours—equivalent to keeping Sydney Opera House lit for 18 months straight!. A pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) site comprises two reservoirs at different altitudes spaced a few km apart and connected with a tunnel or pipe containing a pump/turbine. On sunny and windy days water is pumped uphill to the upper reservoir. The stored energy can be recovered later on by. . This paper focuses on pumped hydro energy storage, which currently provides most of the energy storage for the electricity industry. The fastest energy change in history is underway. 6GW across the Wivenhoe, Tumut 3 and Shoalhaven power stations, with an additional 2GW on the way through Snowy 2.
