6 FAQs about [Economics of Pumped Hydropower Storage]
How can pumped storage hydro help the UK economy?
including £13 million GVA and 190 jobs in the local areas. Pumped storage hydro can play an even bigger role in supporting the UK’s energy system in the future and generate further economic impacts.
Why is pumped storage hydro important?
Pumped storage hydro can play a significant role in meeting the UK’s future energy needs and generate substantial economic benefits. As discussed in the Chapter 3, the UK has ambitious targets to increase the capacity of its electricity system, for which pumped storage hydro can play an important part.
How much energy will pumped storage hydro projects generate?
Adding up direct, indirect and induced impacts, it was estimated that the proposed pumped storage hydro projects could generate £677-926 million GVA in the local areas, £2.3-3.2 billion GVA in the region/nation and £4.2-5.8 billion GVA across the UK.
What are pumped storage hydroelectric power plants?
Pumped storage hydroelectric power plants are one of the most applicable energy storage technologies on large-scale capacity generation due to many technical considerations such as their maturity, frequency control and higher ramp rates, thus maintaining following loads in case of high penetration of renewables in the electrical grid.
Can pumped storage hydro support the energy grid?
As many of these technologies, such as offshore wind, are intermittent, flexible low carbon energy generation assets are needed to support the grid, including energy storage and interconnectors. As an established and proven technology, pumped storage hydro is well-placed to play this role.
Could pumped storage hydro be the future of the UK's energy mix?
Pumped storage hydro can play a significant and growing role in the future of the UK’s energy mix. In order to understand the potential economic impact associated with the technology, an increase in output capacity to around 15GW by 2050 has been modelled.
