4 FAQs about [Energy storage power station in northern Portugal]

Will minhéu be the largest pumped-hydro station in Portugal?

If built, it would be the largest pumped-hydro station in Portugal. The Minhéu project is designed to complement Iberdrola’s Alto Tâmega hydroelectric complex by increasing the system’s energy efficiency and storage capacity. It includes construction of a reservoir in the Cumeada area on Monte de Minhéu, hydraulically linked to the Alto Tâmega dam.

What is the reservoir capacity of Portugal?

The total reservoir capacity is equal to 13,290 hm 3 and the biggest reservoir capacities can be found for Guadiana and Tagus, which are rivers with their origin in Spain . Portugal currently has an installed hydropower generation capacity of 8.2 GW (5.3 dammed hydropower plants and 2.9 run-of-river), from which 3.6 GW are pumped hydro storage.

Is Iberdrola planning a pumped-hydro storage project in Portugal?

Iberdrola has started approval processes for a 1.32 GW pumped-hydro storage project in Portugal. The Proyecto de Aprovechamiento Hidroeléctrico de Minhéu is set to become the country’s largest facility of its kind once completed. From pv magazine Spain
