Description
Description | The Kidston Pumped Storage Hydro Project is Australia's first private pumped hydro scheme, transforming a decommissioned gold mine into a fully contained, closed-loop energy storage system with 250MW generation capacity and 2000MWh storage. It repurposes former mining pits as upper and lower reservoirs, using reversible Francis pump-turbines to move water and generate electricity, providing flexible, long-duration capacity to the National Electricity Market and supporting the transition to a low-emissions grid. |
