Profiling the top five UK hydroelectric power stations

Hydroelectric power stations derive energy from moving water – and about 2% of overall electricity generation in the UK has been produced from these sources over the past 30 years. The three main types of hydroelectric power stations in the UK include storage schemes, run-of-river schemes and pumped storage.

Pumped Storage Hydro

How Pumped Storage Hydro Works. Pumped storage hydro (PSH) involves two reservoirs at different elevations. During periods of low energy demand on the electricity network, surplus electricity is used to pump water to the higher reservoir. When electricity demand increases, the stored water is released, generating electricity.
