Tehri Pumped Storage Plant Overview

The Tehri Pumped Storage Plant in India has the following key features: 1. It uses the Tehri Dam Reservoir as the upstream reservoir and the Koteshwar Dam Reservoir as the downstream reservoir, with a maximum head water level of 830m and minimum of 740m. 2. It includes two underground power houses with a total installed capacity of 1000MW from four 250MW variable speed pump-turbine units. 3. Water is sent between the reservoirs via two head race tunnels, four penstocks, and two tail race tunnels, with surge shafts at both ends to regulate water flow.
