6 FAQs about [My country s first pumped storage power station]

Can pumped storage units be made in China?

Hence, the independence of manufacturing pumped storage units can be gradually realized in China. If the equipments are capable to be made in China, they should be used as much as possible, which can actively improve the localization of the pumped storage units.

What is pumped storage power station (PSPS)?

The pumped storage power station (PSPS) is a special power source that has flexible operation modes and multiple functions. With the rapid economic development in China, the energy demand and the peak-valley load difference of the power grid are continuing to increase.

Why are pumped storage units so expensive in China?

The main equipment of the pumped storage units in China basically is relying on imports at present, and the key technology and components are all imported. For this reason, the equipment prices stay high, the spare parts can not be supplied in time, and the localization ability of the pumped storage unit is not strong.

Does Gangnan hydropower station have load regulation?

For the application of the pumped storage unit, Gangnan hydropower station owns the ability of load regulation. Erenow, it can only generate seasonal power . Although the scale of this PSPS is small, it is designed reasonably and utilized appropriately. Its construction initiates the history of the PSPS development in China.

What is pumped Energy Storage?

The PSPS is the best tool for energy storage. The pumped storage has the function of energy reserve, and it solves the problem of electricity production and consumption at the same time, and not easy to store. Thus, it can effectively regulate the dynamic balance of the power systems in electricity generation and utilization.

Should Chinese power systems develop pumped storage systems?

The result shows the urgency of developing the PSPS in Chinese power systems that have given priority to thermal power, and the energy resources need the wide-range optimal allocation within the system. The development cycle of the pumped storage is long, and at least 8–10 years are needed from the planning to the completion.
