[QUOTE="Exfarmer, post: 7794615, member: 1951"] to have any real impact stored energy systems such a as Dinorwig are there only real storage systems which is both safe and effective. However Dinorwig holds approximately 9.1 GWh , which his sufficient to supply the UK for. under 20 minutes in gross terms . Of course it can only be released at approximately 1.8GWH which is about 5% of average consumption. However this is very important in peak times or in emergency if a major power station fails and the grid voltage falls as it can be turned on so quickly. However the amount of storage required to run the country for any length of time in reality would mean every Dale and valley across the UK would need utilising to have any real capacity The other proposals which I have seen such as trains going up mountains etc would be just a small drop in the ocean realising a few hundred for thousand kilowatts.
