Abstract

In this research four integrated strategies proposed and discussed for increasing the flexibility of hydropower operations. This initiative seeks to understand, enable, and improve the contribution of hydropower, including pumped storage hydropower (PSH) to reliability, resilience, and integration in the rapidly evolving U.S. electricity system. Hydropower’s flexibility is central to enhancing all these contributions. Four KFA (key focus areas) listed below to maintain and reliable operations. These KFAs will develop a suite of advancements that improve hydropower flexibility at multiple scales: improved components within the plant, improved hybridized capabilities at the plant interconnection, and improved operations across the fleet.[1],[2],[3] 1.
