Sauthier is especially proud of the six pump-turbines, which are almost unique in the world in terms of their sheer size and the technology used. “In less than ten minutes we can reverse See more on swissinfo.ch
900 MW Nant de Drance Pumped Storage Power
The Nant de Drance pumped storage facility was designed to exploit part of the enormous hydroelectric potential of the Swiss Alps for stabilizing the European grid and securing Switzerland's power supply.
Energy Storage Power Stations in Switzerland: Innovations,
Traditional pumped-storage plants like Nant de Drance (a beast capable of powering 400,000 homes) now share the stage with grid-scale batteries. In ,
Large-scale battery for Switzerland: 65 megawatt
Primeo Energie will use our storage system to provide energy flexibility. The battery stores surplus electricity from renewable sources and feeds it back into the grid as needed. In this way, fluctuations can be balanced out and
Switzerland: the rise of utility-scale energy storage technologies
Switzerland has been relying on pumped storage to release power on the grid when needed for decades, and laws have been tailored to support this technology. The trend
Grid of the future
They include using storage systems intelligently, not feeding production peaks from solar and wind power plants into the grid when there is a surplus of electricity, and adjusting consumption behaviour to the energy supply.
