This document provides criteria for Pumped Storage Hydro-Electric project owners to assess their facilities and programs against. Pumping is the principal feature that sets pumped storage projects apart from conventional. . Pumped hydroelectric storage (PHS) is the most widely used electrical energy storage technology in the world today. It can offer a wide range of services to the modern-day power grid, especially assisting the large-scale integration of variable energy resources. Today, ESS are found in a variety of industries and applications, including public utilities, energy companies and grid system providers, public and private transportatio f ESS can also expose us to new hazards and safety risks. Current safety evaluation standards for these tunnels remain insufficient and inadequately address their structural characteristics.
