Pumped storage uses two lakes at different heights to store energy.
Water pumped uphill stores energy as height, called potential energy.
India aims to have 500 gigawatts of clean power by 2030.
Currently about 7 gigawatts of water battery power works in India.
Plans could raise this to over 100 gigawatts in the next ten years.
The sun and wind don’t always shine or blow when we need power.
A special plant moves water up a hill when there is extra electricity, storing it like a battery.
When more electricity is needed, the water flows down and creates power.
These water batteries will help India have enough clean energy. 🌟
