September 12, 2024

More News Coming Soon:

Join us on 18th September for a webinar featuring T. Staffan Lundström as one of the key speakers 🌊 Staffan will present the Store2Hydro project, which focuses on optimising electricity storage by integrating reversible pump turbine technology into existing hydropower infrastructures. The aim is to increase European storage capacity by up to 22 TWh per year.

Additionally, Store2Hydro will validate new solutions for pumped storage, identify untapped hydropower reservoirs, and maintain reservoir volumes. The project also incorporates digital twin technology to improve monitoring and adaptability in response to variable renewable energy generation, making hydropower operations more efficient and flexible 🌍🔋.

Staffan Lundström is a Chair Professor of Fluid Mechanics and Deputy Head of the Department of Engineering Sciences and Mathematics at Luleå University of Technology, Sweden. He is also the Director of the Swedish Centre for Sustainable Hydropower and the main applicant and coordinator for a Horizon Europe project on long-term electricity storage technologies for flexible hydropower (2024-2027).

With significant experience in hydropower research and project leadership, Staffan has contributed to multiple European and international initiatives. He is also a member of various expert panels and research boards, including the Governing Board of ETIP HYDROPOWER.This webinar will provide valuable insights into the Store2Hydro project and its potential impact on hydropower and energy storage in Europe 🌿💧.
