Zusammenfassung: | The ability of pumped storage
hydroelectric power (PSP) to supply large amounts of
electricity at a moment’s notice provides a strong
complement to the natural variability of wind and solar
generation, potentially easing the integration of renewables
into Vietnam’s burgeoning power system. But the availability
of relatively inexpensive off-peak generation for pumping is
a central part of the economics of PSP. In today’s Vietnam,
cheap off-peak power may be hard to come by. |
