With NREL's cost model for pumped storage hydropower technologies, researchers and developers can calculate cost and performance for specific development sites. Photo by Consumers Energy. Pumped storage hydropower (PSH) plants can store large quantities of energy equivalent to 8 or more hours of power production.
Pumped storage hydropower (PSH) can meet electricity system needs for energy, capacity, and flexibility, and it can play a key role in integrating high shares of variable renewable generation such as wind and solar.
The Residential Energy Storage Incentives are available for contractors’ installing storage on a new or existing home in New York State. Incentives are available for up to 25 kWh of storage capacity. The Program Manual [PDF] provides a full list of project eligibility and requirements.
As described above, power station equipment costs are determined with the method described in Section 4.3. Depending on the type of power station (underground or surface) the total cost of power station equipment is estimated using head height and power plant capacity to reflect economies of scale.
