About Hydro-pumped Storage
Hydro-pumped Storage is an altered use of conventional hydropower technology to store and manage energy. Hydro pumped storage projects store electricity by circulating water between an upper and lower reservoir. The electric energy is converted to potential energy and stored in the form of water at an upper elevation. Pumping the water uphill for temporary storage recharges the battery and during periods of high electricity demand the stored water is released back through the turbines and converted back to electricity like a conventional hydropower station. Current pumped storage cycle efficiencies exceed 80 percent comparing favourably to other energy storage technologies and thermal technologies which have comparatively lower efficiency.
TechNavio's analysts forecast the Global Hydro-pumped Storage Plants Market to grow at a CAGR of 6.6 percent over the period 2013-2018.
