TheAndhra Pradeshstate government has set its focus on pumped hydro storage (PHS) plants.
Since supplies from bothsolar and wind power plantsare unpredictable and not completely reliable, it would result in fluctuations in the grids stability.
The state government has decided to promote pumped hydro storage (PHS) power projects at all feasible locations both on river and off-river to generate power to balance the variable renewable energy power and to meet the peak energy demand.
He said that four of the seven locations are near existing reservoirs and three are off-river sites with an estimated potential of 6,300 MW. He said that new projects would come up inGandikota(Kadapa), Chitavati (Ananthapura), Somasila (Nellore) Owk (Kurnool) and two locations-Kurukutti and Karrivalasa (Vizianagaram) and Yerravaram (Visakhapatnam) districts.
