The Department of Energy''s "Pumped Storage Hydropower" video explains how pumped storage works. The first known use cases of PSH were found in Italy and Switzerland in the 1890s, and PSH was first used in the United States in 1930.
The largest PSH plant in the world is the Bath County Pumped Storage Station, constructed in 1985 in the state of Virginia in the United States, with a total installed capacity of 3,003 MW.
The 3,600-MW Fengning Pumped Storage Power Station, which is under construction in Hebei Province in China, is expected to be the world''s largest pumped-storage plant when it is completed...
Manual is specially designed for policy makers, executives of generating authorities and private power companies, and hydro power engineers in developing countries.
With the Fengning station now online, China is on track to expand its pumped storage capacity to 80 GW by 2027, with a broader goal of reaching a total hydropower capacity of 120 GW by 2030.

The plant will use solar power to pump water from the lower reservoir to the upper reservoir for storage during off-peak periods. The stored water will be released to drive turbines for power generation during peak hours.
