CTOnews.com news on November 10, it was learned from the officials of the three Gorges Group that on November 10, the first approved pumped storage project in western Hubei, the Qingjiang pumped storage project and supporting project in Changyang, Hubei Province, which belongs to the three Gorges Group, officially started.

CTOnews.com learned that pumped storage power stations can make use of the natural drop between upper and lower reservoirs according to the law of peak and valley of power use. when the power load is low, they can use electricity to pump water from the lower reservoir to the upper reservoir, which can be effectively stored, and the stored potential energy can be converted into electricity needed by users at the peak of electricity consumption.

The three Gorges Group said that the Changyang Qingjiang pumped storage project has a total investment of 8.869 billion yuan and a design and installed capacity of 1.2 million kilowatts. The project is not only a key implementation project of the National Energy Administration's "medium-and long-term pumped Storage Development Plan (2021Mill 2035)"14th five-year Plan", but also a key construction project of "Hubei Energy Development"14th five-year Plan".

The three Gorges Group said that after the completion of the project, it will undertake the tasks of peak regulation, valley filling, frequency modulation, phase modulation, energy storage and emergency reserve of Hubei power system, with an estimated annual generating capacity of 1.23 billion kilowatt hours.
