From the approval situation: Since the “14th Five-Year Plan” in central China, a total of 25 pumped storage projects have been approved, with an approved installed capacity of 33.496 gigawatts, ranking the most in the geographical region of the country.
The Commission has authorized a total of 24 pumped storage projects that are constructed and in operation, with a total installed capacity of over 16,500 megawatts. Most of these projects were authorized more than 30 years ago. Existing and Proposed Projects
The January 13, 2006 FERC letter or more current FERC guidance should be considered by the licensee when determining the staffing of a pumped storage project. Un-staffed operation should only be considered when robust fail safe systems, procedures and processes are in place to support unattended operation.
2. C. Each Pumped Storage project should have a design change/ configuration control program. This program should ensure the design basis of the plant is controlled and maintained through procedures and processes that assure unauthorized changes are not made to equipment important to safety.
Pumping is the principal feature that sets pumped storage projects apart from conventional hydro projects and overtopping of a project reservoir is the principal failure mode that could impact dam and public safety. Therefore, control and management of water levels is critical to assuring dam and public safety.
