Calculation of the benefits of energy storage for power plants

The pumped storage power plant is a special type of hydroelectric power plant that uses electricity to pump water to an upper reservoir when the energy demand is low and releases the water back into the lower reservoir to generate electricity when the energy demand is high (Brown et al., 2008).

Efficiency analysis of underground pumped storage hydropower plants

The results obtained in both analytical and numerical models show that unlike conventional pumped-storage hydropower plants, the round trip energy efficiency depends on the pressure inside the underground reservoir. The round trip energy efficiency could be reduced from 77.3% to 73.8% when the reservoir pressure reaches -100 kPa.
