What are pumped storage reservoirs?
The method stores energy in the form of gravitational potential energy of water, pumped from a lower elevation reservoir to a higher elevation.
What is the advantages of pumped storage reservr?
it reduces the fluctuation of power station such as in voltage.frequency etc.
What is a Pumped Storage Reservoir?
When there is not much demand for electricity, such as during the night, the extra electricity is used to pump water back up to a storage reservoir. Then, later in the day, when electricity demand is high, the water from the storage water is also released as an extra, producing more electricity when it is needed.
What is a Pumped Storage Reservoir and why do you need them?
When there is not much demand for electricity, such as during the night, the extra electricity is used to pump water back up to a storage reservoir. Then, later in the day, when electricity demand is high, the water from the storage water is also released as an extra, producing more electricity when it is needed. We need them because demand for electricity fluctuates (goes up and down) and pumped storage reservoirs allow us to meet the demand.
What is pumped storage reservoir and why do we need them?
that is when you pump water up into another resevoir, to store electricity for when it is in high demand. We use it because we need electricity
