The Changlongshan pumped storage power station, being developed in the Zhejiang province of China, will have a total installed capacity of 2.1GW. Although the project was officially launched by the owner and developer China Three Gorges Corporation in 2006, the main construction works were started in November 2015.

READ MOREPumped-storage power plants are structured around two bodies of water, an upper and a lower reservoir 1 (see the diagram below). At times of very high electricity consumption on the grid, the water from the upper reservoir, carried downhill by a penstock, drives a turbine and a generator to produce electricity, which is used to meet
READ MOREPumped storage hydro power stations require very specific sites, with substantial bodies of water between different elevations. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of potential sites around the UK, including disused mines, quarries and underground caverns, but the cost of developing entirely new facilities is huge.
