THE IMPORTANCE OF PUMPED STORAGE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER PLANTS FOR TURKEY
Abstract
As one of the main inputs and most important tool in production activities, energy
is among inevitable means in achieving people's economic and social welfare. For this reason, it
is necessary that the energy needs as a result of rising life standards and increasing population
are met sufficiently, reliably and at affordable costs. While, the Pumped Hydroelectric Energy
Storage (PHES) system, one of the renewable energy resources, was once planned to cover the
peak energy demands, nowadays it can also be used for the purpose of storing energy. Prior to
the use as a renewable energy resource, the PHES systems were generally operated at pump
modes during nights. That is at times of low energy costs or low energy consumptions and
operated at turbine modes during peak demands. However; nowadays PHES systems operate for
storing renewable energy resources or depending on their settings within a day, they can operate
in a pump or turbine mode at every hour of the day. And with this in mind, new projects are
planned and carried out. Generally speaking, all developed countries are in need of PHES systems
in their energy portfolios. Turkey is particularly in acute demand of these systems now than any
time ever, parallel with the developments of nuclear energy plants and renewable energy
resources. This study investigates the current and future positions of PHES systems in Turkey and
in the word as a whole.
