Ingula Pumped Storage Scheme

Project Overview. The Ingula Pumped Storage Scheme is an impressive 1,333 MW hydropower scheme, designed to augment the National Grid during peak power usage periods. This engineering innovation was a design created by a three-way joint venture among Knight Piésold, Royal HaskoningDHV, and GIBB (Pty) Ltd. The scheme is …

An Evaluation of Seawater Pumped Hydro Storage for Regulating the Export of Renewable …

A seawater inlet with a surface area of 6 km 2 was assessed for the potential to be used as a 100 MW, low head, high flow, sea water pumped hydro energy storage system. The capital cost was estimated to be recouped after a number of years and the plant has a predicted energy storage capacity of 320 MWh.

Carbon dioxide transport via pipelines: A systematic review

Carbon dioxide transport plays a crucial role in carbon capture and storage systems. As an economical and convenient carrier, pipelines have huge advantages in the transport of carbon dioxide. In this paper, the development of carbon dioxide transport via pipeline is systematically reviewed from four aspects: pipeline …

Introduction to Pumping Stations for Water Supply Systems

4.2.1 Cavitation is a term used to describe a phenomenon that may occur in a pumping installation and may occur in piping systems because of liquid velocity changes. Cavitation in pipe lines may take place at sudden enlargements of the pipe cross section, at sharp bends, throttled valves or similar situations.

Sharing experiences of pumped storage unit design

The design of pumped storage plant units has to ensure high availability and reliability for peak load operation. Over the past 50 years Alstom has continuously investigated and improved its designs to consider the cycling of machines, adjustable speed, efficiency and reliability. This paper takes an in-depth look at Alstom''s experience …
