U.S. Grid Energy Storage Factsheet
PHS systems pump water from lower to upper reservoirs, then release it through turbines using gravity to convert potential energy to electricity when needed. These systems have 50-60 year lifetimes and

Grid energy storage
Electricity can be stored directly for a short time in capacitors, somewhat longer electrochemically in batteries, and much longer chemically (e.g. hydrogen), mechanically (e.g. pumped hydropower) or as heat. The first pumped hydroelectricity was constructed at the end of the 19th century around the Alps in Italy, Austria, and Switzerland. The technique rapidly expanded during the 1960s to 1980s nuclear boom,
