It had another 31 pumped-storage power stations under construction, totaling 42.13 million kW in capacity and accounting for 77 percent of the nation's total. China's development of new types of power storage is also on a fast track.
ZOU MING/FOR CHINA DAILY According to estimates from the China Renewable Energy Engineering Institute, with more than 200 pumped-storage hydropower stations to be installed during the 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25) period, its total installed capacity will reach 62 million kW by 2025.
As of the end of May last year, State Grid Xinyuan had 23 pumped-storage hydroelectricity stations in operation, with an installed capacity of 24.67 million kW, accounting for 61 percent of the nation's total.
Liu Changyi, deputy general manager of State Grid Xinyuan Co Ltd — a major pumped-storage hydroelectric company — said that the industry will enter a new stage of development and usher in great opportunities during the 14th Five-Year Plan period.
A massive planned buildout of pumped storage hydropower (PSH) in Eastern Asia, driven by China, would allow this region to single-handedly meet the International Renewable Energy Agency’s (IRENA) 1.5°C Scenario target of 420 gigawatts of pumped storage worldwide by 2050, according to new data from Global Energy Monitor.
