Introduction
For information on specific pumped storage projects, including issued licenses and exemptions; pending licenses, relicenses, and exemptions; issued preliminary permits; and pending preliminary permits, see our main Licensing page. This toolkit details the barriers for delivering policy solutions to pumped storage development and the appropriate mechanisms needed to drive this growth. Pumped hydroelectric storage (PHS) is the most widely used electrical energy storage technology in the world today.
