The following page lists all power stations that are larger than 1,000 in installed generating capacity, which are currently operational or under construction. Those power stations that are smaller than 1,000 MW, and those that are decommissioned or only at a planning/proposal stage may be found in regional lists, listed at the end of the page.
[pdf] As of 2025, this engineering marvel represents one of Europe's most ambitious solutions to energy storage headaches. Think of it as a massive water-based power bank, but instead of charging your phone, it powers entire cities during peak demand.

Snowy 2.0 will link two existing dams – Tantangara and Talbingo – through 27km of tunnels and build a new underground power station. It has the capability to run for more than seven days continuously before it needs to be ‘recharged’. Snowy 2.0 also has a 100-year design life.
[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.
[pdf] Work has been completed on the world’s largest pumped storage station, at 3.6 GW, according to state news source China Energy News. The Fengning Pumped Storage Power Station in Hebei province, north of Beijing, started commercial operations Sunday on its twelfth and final reversible turbine unit.
[pdf] The Nan'an Pumped Storage Project is located in Dongtian Town, Nan'an City. The power station has an installed capacity of 1.2 million kilowatts (4 × 300,000 kilowatts) and is a daily regulation pumped storage power station with a rated head of 419 meters and a distance-to-height ratio of 4.08.
