Based on the provided search results, the Pinnapuram Integrated Renewable Energy Storage Project (IRESP) in Andhra Pradesh, developed by Greenko, includes a major Pumped Storage Project (PSP) component. While some reports mention Andritz as a supplier, the general project specifications indicate a high-capacity, off-river storage system
Here are the specifications for the Pinnapuram Pumped Storage Project (PSP):
- Total Pumped Storage Capacity: 1,200 MW to 1,680 MW (Reports vary, with 1,200 MW often cited for Phase I and up to 1,680 MW in later documents).
- Units: The project features a combination of 200 MW and 100 MW vertical-axis reversible Francis-type units.
- Storage Capacity: 9,600 MWh to 10,800 MWh.
- Annual Energy Generation (Turbine Mode): ~2,774 MU.
- Annual Energy Consumption (Pump Mode): ~3,645 MU.
- Cycle Efficiency: ~76.10%.
- Type: Off-river, closed-loop system using two newly constructed reservoirs.
- Water Source: Initially filled from the Gorakallu Reservoir.
- Location: Pinnapuram village, Kurnool district, Andhra Pradesh.
- Reservoir Capacity: 1.3 TMC each (Upper and Lower).
- Pump Operation Duration: ~8.73 to 9.22 hours.
- Head: Rated head for turbine mode is 134.0 m to 119.27 m.
- Construction: Rock-fill embankments with a maximum height of 33-35 meters.
- Solar Power: 1,000 MW - 3,000 MW.
- Wind Power: 550 MW - 600 MW.
- Commissioning: Started in 2022, with major completion around 2025.
