Puxian Pumped Storage Power Station is a key implementation project of the "14th Five Year Plan" for the medium and long-term development of pumped storage energy (2021-2035). The installed capacity of the power station is 1200MW, with a rated head of 493m and a distance to height ratio of 5.5. After the completion of the power station, it will undertake tasks such as peak shaving, valley filling, energy storage, frequency regulation, phase modulation, and emergency backup for the power grid system.
