Hydropower leaders push for national policy on pumped storage at energy summit
Hydropower industry leaders have called for a coordinated national policy to support pumped storage hydropower (PSH), launching a new report at the Australian Clean Energy Summit.
The report, Pumped Storage Hydropower: Powering Australia’s Energy Future, was welcomed by Malcolm Turnbull, President of the International Hydropower Association (IHA) and former Prime Minister of Australia. It sets out a case for federal action to accelerate investment in PSH, which is seen as critical to Australia’s long-duration energy storage needs and net zero targets.
