| Description | INTRODUCTION Pumped-storage hydro is one of the most promising sources of peaking power available at the present time. It has been thoroughly proven through actual operation at dozens of plants throughout the world, and unlike most other peaking alternatives, pumped-storage conserves oil and natural gas—our most critical fossil fuels. Furthermore, pumped-storage offers considerable opportunities for multi-purpose use. Here in the Pacific Northwest, the topography is unusually favorable... |
