Pumped Storage Hydropower: A Key Part of Our Clean Energy

A new form of PSH, called Ground-Level Integrated Diverse Energy Storage (GLIDES) systems, pumps water into vessels full of air or other pressurized gases. As more water fills the vessel, it compresses the gases. When the grid needs electricity, a valve opens and the pressurized gas pushes the water through a turbine, which spins a
