transformation of the NEM and provide opportunities for new investment. It is important that the future power system be developed for greater energy resilience, particularly to events that are outside the broader market''s control. That may include climate resilience (to renewable energy droughts or heatwaves), and resilience to critical failures of plant, economic withdrawals of
Pumped storage hydropower (PSH) is a type of hydroelectric energy storage. It is a configuration of two water reservoirs at different elevations that can generate power as water moves down from one to the other (discharge), passing through a turbine.

Indeed, for the foreseeable future hydropower pumped storage stands alone as the only commercially proven technology available for grid- scale energy storage. The last decade has seen tremendous growth of wind and solar generation in response to favorable tax incentives and other policies.
Pumped storage hydropower has a long history of successful development in the U.S. and around the world. Energy storage has been a part of the U.S. electric industry since the first hydropower projects,
Grid scale storage could also reduce the amount of new transmission required to support many states’ goals of 20-33% renewable generation by the year 2020. Pumped storage hydropower has a long history of successful development in the U.S. and around the world.
Water and hydropower reservoirs can provide multiple services and help to mitigate the effects of climate changes and to deal with the increasing water demand; however, new barriers in rivers and reservoirs can also generate environmental impacts. Therefore, hydropower is a complex sector within the Water-Energy-Food-Ecosystem nexus.
Feasibility studies using GIS-MCDM were the most reported method in studies. Storage technology is recognized as a critical enabler of a reliable future renewable energy network. There is growing acknowledgement of the potential viability of pumped hydro energy storage solutions, despite multiple barriers for large-scale installations.
Among the drivers, pumped hydro storage as daily storage (TED2.1), under the utility-scale storage cluster, was the most important driver, with a global weight of 0.148. Pumped hydro's ability to generate revenue (SED1.1), under the energy arbitrage cluster, was the second most prominent driver, with a global weight of 0.096.
