In this study, we configured a geospatial model to identify the potential of PSH across the Nepal Himalayas under multiple configurations by pairing lakes, hydropower projects, rivers, and available flat terrain, and consequently estimate the energy storage capacity.
Nepal Himalayas provide an ideal testbed to study pumped storage systems given high topographic gradients, large flow fluctuations, and prevalent energy demand patterns.
We observed that the most technically feasible locations (greater than 0.1 GWh, shown in green squares in Fig. 4) were located in the northeast region of the country. Only one exploitable site was found with a larger storage capacity, i.e., 0.3 GWh (between Begnas and Rupa Lakes in Northeast Nepal).
Integrating Solar PV with Pumped hydro storage in Nepal: A case study of Sisneri-Kulekhani pump storage project Hydropower Development in Nepal - Climate Change, Impacts and Implications Mool PK, Wangda D, Bajracharya SR, Kunzang K, Raj Gurung D, Joshi SP.
Strip distribution of technically viable pumped storage hydropower (PSH) schemes at different elevation bands (EB1: 0–––500 m, EB2: 500–––1000 m, EB3: 1000–––2000 m, EB4: 2000–––3000 m, and EB5: 3000–––5000 m above sea level) across Nepal.
In total, 3012 GWh is estimated as theoretical potential and 1269 GWh (42% of theoretical) as technical potential across the Nepal Himalayas. PSH’s large potential for energy storage in the Nepal Himalayas is a precursor for Nepal to become a seasonal power hub in the region.
