A windpump replaced by a solar-powered pump at a water hole in the Augrabies Falls National Park. [Notes 1] This solar water pump up to 3.7 kW is useful for farmers.Solar-powered pumps run on electricity generated by photovoltaic (PV) panels or the radiated thermal energy available from collected sunlight as opposed to grid electricity- or diesel-run water pumps.

The Borumba Dam Pumped Hydro Power Station is a proposed 2,000 MW pumped hydro energy storage system at Lake Borumba, located in Imbil, south-west of Gympie in Queensland, Australia. First power is expected in 2030. [1] [2] A state-owned entity called Queensland Hydro is coordinating the project. [3]
As of 2020, South Australia has 3 grid-connected energy storage devices, with a total capacity of 205 MW / 253.5 MWh.

The hybridization of solar photovoltaic with pumped storage is beneficial in rising the capability of the two plant combined because the pumped hydroelectric plant can be used to store the high but unstable amount of electricity coming from the solar PV, making the water basin acting as a battery for the solar photovoltaic plant.

The Purulia Pumped Storage Project is a pumped storage hydroelectric power plant, located at Purulia district of West Bengal, India. The Ajodhya Hills offered suitable terrain for construction of upper and lower reservoirs. The scheme can supply a maximum power of 900-megawatt (1,200,000 hp).
The centerpiece of the project would be a 15-million-acre-foot (19 km 3) reservoir on the Klamath River – the largest man-made lake in California – from where the water would flow through the 60-mile (97 km) Trinity Tunnel into the Sacramento River, and thence to the canals and pump systems of the SWP.
The government provides subsidy of up to 90% of the upfront capital cost to install solar-powered water pumping systems for irrigation and drinking water. [32] As of 30 November 2017, more than 142,000 solar pumps have been installed to irrigate the agricultural fields. [33]
The pump was installed to pump water from Lake Nalubaale to the Nabajjuzi water treatment plant in Masaka City. The purified water is stored in four reservoirs located at Boma, Bwala Hill, Kitovu and Kyabakuza. The new pumping station complements two other stations with pumping capacity of 230,000 cubic meters (230,000,000 L) of water per hour.
