Pumped Energy Storage (PES) is defined as a system whereby energy is stored by pumping for later use. The most common version of PES is the pumping of water from a lower reservoir (natural or artificial) to an upper reservoir at a higher elevation, where water is stored and later converted into electrical energy by letting it fall through hydroelectric turbines.
