YES has a special interest in pumped storage hydropower (PSH). Water that has been pumped into an upper reservoir while energy demands are low can be released into a lower reservoir, powering turbines and instantly generating more power during times of peak demand. Afterward, the water can be pumped back up into the upper reservoir so that the process can be repeated as needed. Pumped storage hydropower increases efficiency, produces no waste, assists in bringing other renewable energies (such as wind and solar) to market, and has little impact on the environment when compared to other methods of energy production.
