Pumped Hydro Storage. Pumped hydro storage is essentially hydro power that pumps water into a reservoir during low-demand, low-cost hours to be held until needed. When demand increases, the water is released, flows through a turbine and produces electricity. Pumped hydro makes up the vast majority of energy storage capacity in the world.
