Are pumped-storage power stations a new investment hotspot in China?
Due to the demand for new energy installations, pumped-storage power stations have become a new investment hotspot in China's power industry. According to official data, by the end of , China's installed pumped-storage capacity had exceeded 58 million kilowatts, with the industry showing an overall positive development trend.
Why is China building pumped-storage hydropower facilities?
China is building pumped-storage hydropower facilities to increase the flexibility of the power grid and accommodate growing wind and solar power. As of May , China had 50 gigawatts (GW) of operational pumped-storage capacity, 30% of global capacity and more than any other country.
Why do we need a pumped-storage power station?
To cope with the instability of wind and solar power output, a pumped-storage power station is needed to regulate and ensure the safe operation of the power grid, as well as reducing the waste of unused renewable energy.
What are the advantages of pumped-storage projects?
Cai Pin, a renowned Chinese expert in hydropower industry, said that pumped-storage projects enjoy numerous advantages, including a long service life, mature technology, large-scale capacity, and low costs, making them the most economical energy storage option available.
