Will Borumba Dam become a 2 gigawatt pumped hydro facility?
Borumba Dam will become a 2-gigawatt pumped hydro facility as part of the project. (ABC News: Michael Lloyd) The Mary River Catchment Coordinating Committee said it was keeping a watchful eye on the project and its environmental processes, over concerns for threatened and endangered species in the Mary River, such as the Mary River cod.
Could pumped storage transform hydroelectric projects?
New research released Tuesday by Global Energy Monitor reveals a transformation underway in hydroelectric projects — using the same gravitational qualities of water, but typically without building large, traditional dams like the Hoover in the American West or Three Gorges in China. Instead, a technology called pumped storage is rapidly expanding.
