Pumped storage power station mingling

What is the operation management of pumped storage power stations?

The operations management of pumped storage power stations mainly includes power station operation, multi-energy complementarity, digital management system, profitability, and electricity consumption adjustment.

How pumped storage power stations can improve energy consumption adjustment?

By enhancing the operations management of pumped storage power stations, and promoting coordination with other renewable energy stations, as well as advancing digital management system construction, it is ensured that the pumped storage can yield stable returns and effectively fulfill its role in electricity consumption adjustment.

What is a pumped storage power station?

Pumped storage power stations partner with stakeholders and share relevant information during the operations management processes, which facilitates the integration of various types of renewable energy power stations into a cohesive “multi-energy complementarity” entity [ 3, 11, 22, 31 ].

Should pumped storage power stations be managed solely?

Interviews revealed that it is insufficient to solely focus on the operations management of pumped storage power stations, and there is also a need to emphasize complementarity and collaboration with other power stations of clean energy.

Why are pumped storage power stations becoming more popular in China?

Driven by China’s long-term energy transition strategies, the construction of large-scale clean energy power stations, such as wind, solar, and hydropower, is advancing rapidly. Consequently, as a green, low-carbon, and flexible storage power source, the adoption of pumped storage power stations is also rising significantly.
