Project Report
Introduction- Hydropower is a renewable, non-polluting and economical source of energy/ In the year 2020, hydropower plants generated around one sixth of the world's electricity, approximately 4500 TWh. Presently, the Pumped hydroelectricity energy storage (PHES) systems are utilized as the most substantial type of large-scale energy storage around the world. In PHES, the energy is initially stored by transferring the water from the lower water reservoir to the other pool placed at a higher elevation which is further converted into electricity by fleeting this stored water over a turbine that can generate electricity and returning it to the lower water reservoir.. These plants are designed to lift water to higher elevation reservoir at low electricity demand and use turbine water to produce electricity when the demand of electricity is high. The capacity of PHES to generate electricity is nearly 1200 GW. Due to its high electricity generation capacity, constructing PHES facilities is increasing globally as a progressing electricity supply system. The Current PHES capacity of Australia is approximately 1.5 GW, and many suitable prospects for the construction of further large-scale Pumped hydroelectric power plants. However, among the various possible sites, the most appropriate site should be selected; otherwise construction of PHES may lead to loss of biodiversity.
In this project among the different possible sites in the Eyre Peninsula (South Australia) for the installation of the Hydropower facility, we selected the East Eyre 2 sites. This site is situated beside the eastern coast of the southern Eyre Peninsula at an elevation of 100-200 m above sea level. This location is selected because it has an optimal dam site suitable for the RCC dam, which is of...
