What are the different types of hydroelectric power stations?
4. The different forms of hydraulic storage We can distinguish three types of hydroelectric power stations capable of producing energy storage: the power stations of the so-called “lake” hydroelectric schemes, the power stations of the “run-of-river” hydroelectric schemes, and the pumping-turbine hydroelectric schemes (Read: Hydraulic works).
What is pumped-storage hydroelectricity?
Pumped-storage hydroelectricity (PSH), or pumped hydroelectric energy storage (PHES), is a type of hydroelectric energy storage used by electric power systems for load balancing. A PSH system stores energy in the form of gravitational potential energy of water, pumped from a lower elevation reservoir to a higher elevation.

Massive hydraulic storage thus offers the possibility of storing surplus electrical energy and responding reactively and with large capacities to supply and demand variability.
Pumped storage plants can operate with seawater, although there are additional challenges compared to using fresh water, such as saltwater corrosion and barnacle growth. Inaugurated in , the 240 MW in France can partially work as a pumped-storage station. When high tides occur at off-peak hours, the turbines can be used to pump more seawater into the reservoir than the high tide would have naturally brought in. It is the only large
