A dynamic energy storage solution, pumped storage hydro has helped ‘balance’ the electricity grid for more than five decades to match our fluctuating demand for energy. Pumped storage hydro (PSH) involves two reservoirs at different elevations.
Also, the 1.8 GW Jixi Pumped Storage Power Station is the largest pumped hydro storage project, costing an estimated USD 1.61 billion. It was developed by the State Grid Xinyuan Company, a subsidiary company of the State Grid Corporation of China (SGCC).
