The difficulty of finding suitable sites for dams on rivers, including the associated environmental challenges, has caused many analysts to assume that pumped hydro energy storage has limited further opportunities to support variable renewable generation. Closed-loop, off-river pumped hydro energy storage overcomes many of the barriers.

Pumped hydro energy storage is the largest capacity and most mature energy storage technology currently available and for this reason it has been a subject of intensive studies in a number of different countries [12,13]. In fact, the first central energy storage station was a pumped hydro energy storage system built in 1929 .

As part of the new French law on energy transition, the Demosthene research project is studying the possibility of reusing old abandoned mines to store thermal energy in the Picardy region. The aim is to store the heat required for a small collective unit, which corresponds to a volume of water of 2000–8000 m3, depending on the temperature (from 15 to 70 °C). An
Pumped hydro storage (PHS) is a form of energy storage that uses potential energy, in this case water. It is an elderly system; however, it is still widely used nowadays, because it presents a mature technology and allows a high degree of autonomy and does not require consumables, nor cutting-edge technology, in the hands of a few countries.
