- Abstract
Pinnapuram Integrated renewable energy storage power plant is a revolutionary illustration of world’s first and largest GW scale integrated renewable energy generation by mixing solar, wind, and pumped hydro energy storage components for the reliable and sustainable delivery of an energy supply. Pumped hydro energy storage is traditionally built and profitably-viable technology such as batteries, which has been in use since the 1890s. Hydro power renewability, sustainability, adaptability, and storage capability made it an essential component for grid balancing and the integration of inconsistentnon-conventional energy sources like wind and solar. The technical and economic feasibility underpinning this project is dwelled on in the following review, treating the frontline design, operational strategies, and benefits with regard to grid stability and peak load shaving. The research presents an in-depth analysis of the Pinnapuram model as a way to understand replication, scalability, and policy implications for less carbon-intensive energy futures worldwide. Drawing on the successes and challenges of this plant, this paper aims to broaden experience and learning for future integrated.
