Feasibility of Pumped Hydro Storage for Energy Production and Flood Mitigation in Pekan

The purpose of this paper is to study the feasibility of flood water catchment integrated with pumped hydro storage plant for energy production and new flood mitigation in Pekan, Pahang. The application of pumped hydro storage basically is to improve the peak power scenario by storing electric energ...
