Pumped Storage Hydropower (PSH)
About 130 GW of PSH in the world, of which:–40 GW in the European Union–22 GW in the United States
Many utilities are building new PSH capacity–1,200 MW Alto Tamega in Portugal,–760 MW Venda Nova 3 in Portugal,–852 MW La Muela 2 in Spain, etc.
Seneca PSH in Pennsylvania

Drivers for the Development of PSH – Then …
Historically, key drivers for the development of PSH capacity were to perform load shifting (load levelling) and provide backup capacity for large nuclear and coal units

Ancillary Services, such as Operating Reserves are Needed to Balance Wind

Power Systems will Need Flexible Capacity to Support Variable Generation

About 13,000 MW ramping in 3 hours

Advanced Forecasting Helps Reduce Uncertainty, Energy Storage Helps Manage Variability

Current wind forecasts tools do reasonably well Forecasting ramps is still an issue
![Page 8: State of the Industry and Research Efforts in PSH](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/587863ad1a28ab18098b6c8b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Value of PSH in Utility Systems
Three main components:
1. Energy/price arbitrage
2. Ancillary services
3. System-wide effects (lower system operating costs, better integration of VER, reduced cycling of thermal units, increased system reliability, etc.)

PSH Has a Key Role in the Integration of Variable Generation ResourcesPSH plants are well-suited to provide a number of ancillary and other grid
services
Characterized by fast, flexible, and reliable operation with quick starts and excellent ramping capabilities
Proven technologies, commercially widely available
New PSH technology designs are focusing on providing even more flexibility
In the pumping mode, PSH plants create system load which can be used to store excess generation of VER and reduce their curtailments
PSH plants can provide ancillary services at lower cost than thermal generating units

PSH Provides FLEXIBILITY to the Grid!
Load shifting from peak to off-peak periods–Increase efficiency of system operation by:
• Increasing the generation of base load units• Reduces the operation of expensive peaking units
Contingency reserve (spinning and non-spinning)–Provide large amount of fast contingency reserve (e.g., for the
outages of large nuclear and coal units)Regulation reserve
– Help maintain system frequency at a narrow band around nominal system frequency by balancing supply and demand
Flexibility reserves and load following– Provide quick-ramping capacityEnergy imbalance reduction
–Balance the variability of wind and solar power and correct the control area intertie exchanges 10

Adjustable Speed PSH Provide Even More Flexibility
One type of adjustable speed unit is doubly-fed induction machine (DFIM) The rotors of DFIM units are equipped with three-phase windings and fed via
frequency converter The actual mechanical speed is the result of superposition of both rotor and
stator rotating magnetic fields and is controlled by frequency converter The units can vary the speed (typically up to 10% around the synchronous
speed) It is possible to adjust the speed to actual water head, which increases turbine
efficiencyActive and reactive power can be controlled electronically and separately The units are able to operate in partial load pumping mode

Additional Benefits of Adjustable Speed PSH (Compared to Fixed Speed PSH)More flexible and efficient operation in generation mode
–Minimum unit power output as low as 20% –Increased efficiency and lifetime of the turbine at partial loads by operating at
optimal speed Frequency regulation capabilities also available in the pumping modeDecoupled control of active and reactive power (electronically)
–Provides more flexible voltage support Improved dynamic behavior and stability of power system
–Improved transient stability in case of grid faults (e.g., short circuit faults in the transmission system)
–Reduced frequency drops in case of generator outages Increased capabilities to balance variable renewables
–More flexible and quicker response in generating (turbine) mode–Variable power in pumping mode to counterbalance variability of VERs–Excellent source of frequency regulation during off-peak hours

Fixed and Adjustable Speed PSH Technologies
Adjustable speed PSH use doubly-fed induction machines (DFIM) or converter-fed synchronous machines (CFSM)Adjustable speed PSH can operate in partial load pump mode, which allows
them to provide regulation service also during pumping

Ternary PSH Technology with Hydraulic Bypass Provides for Extraordinary FlexibilityKops 2 (3x150 MW) PSH plant in Austria has implemented ternary pump-
turbine arrangement with hydraulic bypass Turbine and pump are connected with a mechanical clutch (pump can be
separated during the generation mode to increase efficiency)During the pumping, the power taken from the grid can be supplemented by
the power produced by the hydro turbine (“hydraulic short circuit”) This provides for flexibility in regulating the pumping power needs from the
grid

DOE Funded a Study on the Modeling and Analysis of Value of Advanced PSH in the U.S. Clean energy goals require reliance on large amount of VER, which makes electric
grid difficult to manage PSH enables high penetration of VER:
– Provides large quantities of energy storage and full range of ancillary services necessary for grid operation
– Provides large amount of flexible dispatchable capacity with no greenhouse gas emissions– Has none of the limitations of other flexible technologies like gas turbines and demand
response– Can mitigate over-generation of VER through storing and time-shifting excess generation– Improves dynamic behavior and stability of power system
