NEW PUBLICATION: Optimization of Pumped Hydro Energy Storage Design and Operation for Offshore Low-Head Application and Grid Stabilization
The increasing share of renewable energy sources in the global electricity generation defines the need for effective and flexible energy storage solutions. PHES with their technically matured plant design and wide economical potential can generally match those needs. But especially for lowland countries, where low-head PHES applications are needed, the current turbomachinery technologies offer no viable solutions for LH-PHES to be a competitive energy storage technology in the context of realizing the European Green Deal.
