This paper introduces a utility-scale ESS based on pumped hydro storage (PHS), which is the most prevalent and mature example of medium–large scale energy storage. This commercially proven storage method currently accounts for over 95% of the total storage capacity being utilized in the world [6] .
The existing 161,000 megawatts (MW) of pumped storage capacity supports power grid stability, reducing overall system costs and sector emissions. A bottom up analysis of energy stored in the world''s pumped storage reservoirs using IHA''s stations database estimates total storage to be up to 9,000 gigawatt hours (GWh).
