Customer ServiceAs a result, pumped storage hydro is a critical enabling technology for the wider deployment of the renewable energy the UK needs. SSE Renewables is progressing a development pipeline of pumped storage hydro projects in the UK.
Located on the shores of Loch Lochy in the Scottish Highlands, between Fort William and Inverness, SSE’s proposed Coire Glas pumped storage hydro project would be the first such scheme to be built in the UK in 40 years.
“The flagship project in the Scottish Highlands can shift the dial on pumped hydro storage – harnessing the power of wind and water to become Britain’s biggest natural battery, storing excess renewable energy at times of low demand and supporting a future clean electricity system with instant power.
It would be one of the most significant infrastructure projects in Scotland in a generation. Pumped storage plants act like giant water batteries by using reversible turbines to pump water from a lower reservoir to an upper reservoir, which stores excess power from sources such as wind farms when supply outstrips demand.
In addition to Coire Glas, SSE has plans to convert the largest conventional hydro power station in its existing hydro power fleet, the 152.5MW Sloy Power Station in southern Scotland, into a pumped storage hydro scheme. The company is also co-developing a new pumped storage hydro project at Loch Fearna in Scotland’s Great Glen*.
Stephen Crosher, Chief Executive of RheEnergise said: “Over the next decade, Long Duration Energy Storage can make an important contribution to the UK energy market, and indeed globally. Long Duration Energy Storage is a key to delivering the energy transition and will help strengthen the resilience and security of the UK’s energy system.
