Argonne National Laboratory | Pumped Storage Hydropower: Water Battery for Clean Energy @ArgonneLab | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 1 hour ago
In this video, Argonne representatives show STEM students how pumped storage hydropower (PSH) is a “Water Battery for Clean Energy.”
Watch how Argonne experts are interviewed by a Chicago high school student on building a model of a PSH plant. The PSH model is designed to be highly portable so that it can be taken to schools and STEM fairs to show how PSH is a “Water Battery for Clean Energy”.
The video also shows the crucial role PSH plays in providing energy storage to balance electric grid operations and support variable generation resources such as wind and solar power.
