Introduction
Yes, pumped hydro storage (PHS) can be integrated with renewable energy sources like solar and wind. We consider the problem of reliably operating a microgrid with solar generation and pumped hydroelectric storage. To ensure a stable, carbon-free energy grid, significant energy storage solutions are needed, with estimates suggesting the region requires up to 10,000 megawatts of backup reserves. PSH complements wind and solar by storing the excess electricity they create and providing the backup for when the wind isn’t blowing, and the sun isn’t shining.
