In Switzerland one study suggested that the total installed capacity of small pumped-storage hydropower plants in 2011 could be increased by 3 to 9 times by providing adequate policy instruments. [42] Using a pumped-storage system of cisterns and small generators, pico hydro may also be effective for "closed loop" home energy generation systems ...
