pumped storage

基本解释

To demonstrate how much less infrastructure his system requires, Howe uses the example of the Bath County Pumped Storage hydro-electric dam in Virginia, US.
为了证明这个系统无需太多的基础设施，豪举例说明美国佛吉尼亚州巴斯县抽水蓄能水电大坝。
The same goes for the pumped storage facilities required to support a largely renewable power system and for the carbon capture and storage required to reduce the impacts of fossil fuels.
同样的问题也发生在抽水蓄能设施的建设上，这是支持大型可持续能源系统、减少碳排放以便减少化石能源的影响所必须的设施。
Not surprisingly, the company invests very little in its pumped storage plants today.
不足为奇的是，今天公司很少投资抽水蓄能电站。

In the 1970s, some pumped hydropower storage was built at existing dam reservoirs to store nuclear power that otherwise went largely wasted at night.
FORBES: Energy Storage Critical to Solar Industry
That is well above the base power load and the surge is supplied by less efficient fossil fuel power generators as well as some peak pumped water storage.
FORBES: More False Hope About Renewable Energies That Consumers Reject
That is the approach taken by Isentropic, a company based in Cambridge, England, with a system it calls pumped heat electricity storage (PHES), which uses argon gas to transfer heat between two vast tanks filled with gravel.
ECONOMIST: Energy storage

(in hydroelectric systems) a method of using power at a period of low demand to pump water back up to a high storage reservoir so that it can be released to generate electricity at a period of peak demand

抽水蓄能
The pumped storage stations can shift the peak load and fill the valley load and follow or backup load.
抽水蓄能电站能够削峰填谷，提高火电设备利用率和运行效率，而且还可以进行负荷跟踪或作为旋转备用。
