Nestled in the Daugava River basin, this €800 million marvel (slated for 2028 completion) could power 400,000 homes during peak demand. But how does it actually work? Let's break it down without the engineering jargon. Imagine your childhood water park slide – but scaled up for national grid needs.

[pdf] Pumped-storage hydroelectricity (PSH), or pumped hydroelectric energy storage (PHES), is a type of used by for . A PSH system stores energy in the form of of water, pumped from a lower elevation to a higher elevation. Low-cost surplus off-peak electric power is typically used to run the pumps. During periods of high electrical demand, the stored water is released through to produce electric power. Pumped hydro storage power plants function like "giant batteries", utilizing surplus electricity during off-peak hours to pump water from a lower reservoir to an upper reservoir. During peak demand periods, this stored water is released to generate electricity.
