reversible turbine

Before reaching the reversible turbines, the water branches off into four branch pipes.

The water will be recycled back into the lake through the reversible turbines in a system known as "pump-storage".

The power station contains four reversible turbines for an installed capacity of 800 MW.

Each reversible turbine has a 200 MW installed capacity.

Four generators are conventional turbines and another four are reversible turbines.

Reversible turbine/generator assemblies act as pump and turbine (usually a Francis turbine design).

Sira-Kvina power company applied in 2007 for concession to expand the power station with two new units (reversible turbines), each 480 MW.

The power plant consists of six reversible turbines that can each generate 312 megawatts of electricity for a total output of 1,872 megawatts.

The power station comprises six 300MW GEC generator/motors coupled to Francis-type reversible turbines.

The reversible turbines at Cruachan were highly innovative and meant that a separate system - as was used in conventional hydro systems of the time - was unnecessary.

When demand and prices for electricity are low, water is pumped from Wishon Reservoir to Courtright Reservoir using the power plant's reversible turbines.

The reversible turbine generators at the Sakuma power plant were designed to function as either electrical power generators, or as pumps, to reverse the flow of water back into the reservoir in times of low demand.
