Report Description

The Global Pumped Hydro Storage Market is expected to thrive during the forecast period 2023-2028. Pumped storage power plants are used to meet the energy requirements of peak loads and to stabilize the load on the grid. A pumped storage power station consists of two reservoirs at different elevations. At peak times, the water stored in the upper reservoir is used to turn a turbine to generate electricity. During times of low demand (usually at night when electricity prices are cheaper), electricity from the grid is used to pump water to restore the upper reservoirs. The system will manage surplus generation capacity and support renewable energy integration and efficient and reliable operation of the grid. As countries around the world focus on energy storage, pumped storage has become a highly demanded energy storage solution. Additionally, pumped storage is currently the only energy storage solution suitable for very large deployments. Moreover, increasing government fossil fuel phase-out targets are likely to support market growth during the forecast period.

Growing demand for Pumped Hydro Storage  

Pumped Storage power generation is called "green battery". It is the only viable way to store energy on a large scale with such a low environmental impact. The whole idea relies on the water cycle powered by the sun and turbines. Therefore, it is a completely renewable source of energy production. Reservoirs are even more sustainable than conventional hydropower because they collect a fixed amount of water in most cases and use it to form independent cycles. Apart from the availability of abundant and sustainable raw materials, these pumped storage facilities provide a constant return on investment due to minimal maintenance requirements.

Another advantage of hydraulic accumulator systems is that they can be used in areas where spring water is scarcely available giving nations suffering from water scarcity a reason to install pumped hydro storage. Also, upper or lower dams and reservoirs that retain generated water may be used as recreational facilities if water levels do not rise or fall rapidly or excessively in response to generation or pumping. This is expected to propel the market during the forecast peroid.

Pumped Hydro Storage (PHS) is a mature technology with high capacity, long lifetime, high efficiency and relatively low capital cost per unit of energy. Due to low evaporation and permeation, PHS has a variable shelf life, typically from hours to days to years. Taking into account evaporation and conversion losses, 71-85% of the electrical energy used to pump water into the pond can be recovered and is expected to contribute in the market growth during the forecast period.

Availability of Power Plants

Pumped storage power plants (PSPPs) are one of the commercially proven grid-scale energy storage methods especially in areas with large installed capacity of wind farms and solar power plants. But limited PSPPs shall cause a hindrance to the growth of this market.

Latest Trends in Global Pumped Hydro Storage market

In 2021, the World Bank had approved a USD 380 million loan to build Indonesia's first pumped storage power plant, Upper Cisokan. The power plant is expected to be located between Jakarta and Bandung. The expected capacity of the plant is 1040 MW. The project aims to ensure the security of power generation during peak domestic demand and achieve decarbonisation goals.

In September 2020, General Electric announced that Megha Engineering had been selected to supply and commission four 125 MW fixed speed pumping turbines for the Kunda power plant in India. The plant is expected to be commissioned in 2023. The project is worth USD 35.33 million.

The San Diego County Water Authority is seeking a private partner to build and operate a pumped storage power plant on the San Vicente Reservoir. The construction and development of the San Vicente Energy Storage Facility is estimated at USD 1.5 billion. California aims to get 100% of its electricity from carbon-free sources by 2045.

Frequently asked questions

down-arrow

Pumped hydropower (PSH) is a type of hydroelectric power generation. It is a configuration of two reservoirs of different heights, where water can move (release) from one to the other and generate electricity as it passes through a turbine.

down-arrow

Electricite de France SA (EDF), Iberdrola SA, EON SE, General Electric Company, Voith GmbH & Co. KGaA, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd, Toshiba Energy Systems & Solutions Corporation, Andritz Hydro GmbH, Alstom SA, Duke Energy Corporation are the major market players in the Global Pumped Hydro Storage Market.

down-arrow

Like other hydroelectric power plants, pumped storage plants generate electricity by forcing water into turbine generators. However, unlike conventional hydroelectric power plants, when a pumped storage plant generates electricity, it can pump the water from the lower reservoir back to the upper reservoir.
