Pumped Storage at Apache Lake
Salt River Project (SRP) of Arizona plans to build a “pumped storage” facility at a site on Apache Lake, downstream from Roosevelt Dam and upstream from Horse Mesa Dam.
View DetailsIt draws on studies from around the world but is focussed on the need for large-scale electrical energy storage in Great Britaina (GB) and how, and at what cost, storage needs might best be met. In 2050 Great Britain's demand for electricity could be met by wind and solar energy supported by large-scale storage.
Lithium-ion phosphate (LFP) batteries also use relatively cheap materials but have lower energy density than NMC chemistries. Energy density is less critical in stationary applications, making LFP a potentially significant stationary storage technology by 2030.
Demonstrators are needed before large-scale energy storage systems can be widely deployed, to identify and solve engineering and integration issuesae. In the case of large-scale hydrogen storage, supplied by electrolysers powered by wind and solar energy, enough is known to start construction nowaf, as is happening elsewhereag.
How much hydrogen storage will ultimately be needed to support the electricity system will depend on what other forms of supply and storage are built, but it will be TWhs, and there are expectations that green hydrogen is likely to play many roles.
