Abstract

The peak load capacity of hydropower facilities has become more necessary as electricity grids have expanded. The ratio of power demands during peak times to those during off-peak times has increased in several power plant systems. One way to meet the rising need for affordable peak power is by using reversible pump turbines. Depending on the sorts of facilities used to generate hydropower, there are several types of hydropower plants. We'll talk about the most efficient and reliable hydropower sources, as well as various hydropower plant types based on the varied hydropower generation facilities, which will be the subject of this review investigation.
