Why Is Energy Storage Crucial for a Resilient Power Grid?
PHS systems operate by pumping water from a low- to high-end reservoir, releasing water through a hydroelectric tube to generate kinetic energy. Worldwide, 96% of current energy storage exists in such a system. Perfecting this technology has led to 70%-85% efficiency and a long life span of 50 to 60 years.
