Pumped storage machines by Voith
Voith‘s pump storage plants work from the start
Clean, flexible and renewable: Pumpstorage power plants offer a highly reliable technology
which can perferctly level grid fluctuations and deliver energy immediately. In a world
of energy increasingly dominated by wind and solar, pumpstorage power plants are indispensible.
Over a period of decades Voith has developed a cutting-edge technology.
In 1937, Voith developed the first large
pump-turbine, which operated both as
a turbine for energy generation and, in
the reverse direction, as a pump.
The first pumped storage station in
Germany was installed in 1908 in the
Voith research and development building,
the Brunnenmühle in Heidenheim,
Germany....

Schluchseewerk AG, a 50% subsidiary of RWE Power, operates five pumped-storage power plants (PSPs) in the Black Forest with a total installed capacity of 1,836 MW. As contractually agreed, RWE Power can dispatch half of the installed generating sets and, hence, 50% of the installed capacity of Schluchseewerk AG.
