Pumped hydroelectric energy storage is a perfect fit for Ireland’s path to zero emissions electricity generation, writes Chris Bakkala. It is a case of feast and famine: more electricity than we can use and not enough when we need it!
Ireland could develop an additional 360MW of pumped storage hydroelectric capacity by 2030 to mitigate security of supply concerns in relation to electricity.
It aims to turn a former mine site into one of Ireland’s leading clean energy facilities. This pumped hydro power project can store as much as 296 Megawatts (MW), with a daily storage capacity up to 2,175MWh of electricity. This is enough to power 185,000 households or 21,000 small businesses in Ireland everyday.
The proposal has been likened to the construction of the Ardnacrusha hydroelectric power scheme, which was Ireland's first large post-independence infrastructure project and required investment equivalent to 25% of the national budget at the time but met the majority of the state's electricity needs for 50 years.
Pumped Hydroelectric Energy Storage is currently deployed to good effect in Scotland and Wales and in Ireland. Here we have one such installation, at Turlough Hill in Co Wicklow with a rated capacity of 292MW. It is now in its 50th year of operation, and may very well continue for another 50 years.
This follows An Bord Pleanála confirming that the Silvermines Hydroelectric Energy Storage Project has been deemed mature enough to enter the permit granting process for Projects of Common Interest.
