4 FAQs about [Grenada drought pumped storage latest news]
Is pumped storage threatening a popular attraction?
The program has been wildly successful. Tickets go on sale a year in advance and sell out almost immediately. But the pumped storage project threatens that popular attraction. The site where the train stops for passengers to peer through telescopes is nearly in front of where the pumped storage project is planned to be built.
Where are pumped storage projects located?
So the majority of the nearly 100 pumped storage projects currently in the preliminary phase with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission are throughout the mountainous Western U.S.
How long will it take to build a pumped storage project?
