pumped-storage hydroelectric Pumped-storage hydroelectricity (PSH), or pumped hydroelectric energy storage (PHES), is a type of hydroelectric energy storage used by electric power systems for load balancing. The method stores energy in the form of gravitational potential ...
power stations that are larger than in installed generating capacity, which are currently operational or under construction. Those power stations that are smaller than , and those that are decommissioned or only at a planning/proposal stage may be found in regional lists, listed at the end of the page.


List of plants larger than 1000 MW capacity

The table below lists currently operational power stations. Some of these may have additional units under construction, but only current installed capacity is listed.


Under construction

This table lists future 1,000 MW or larger stations that are under construction; some may be partially operational with a current installed capacity under 1,000 MW.
