Pumped storage plants – hydropower plant plus energy storage

450 pumped storage units installed worldwide by Voith. In 1937, Voith developed the first large, single-stage pump turbine, which operated both as a turbine for energy generation and in the reverse direction as a pump. Today, nearly 450 Voith pump turbines have been installed worldwide with a combined output of more than 60 000 megawatts.
