water-storage | plant producing electricity with turbines fed by water coming from a lake behind a dam. Note: Power plants in Switzerland must have a storage capacity of at least 25% of the average expected winter production, otherwise they are plant:method=run-of-the-river plants. | |
water-pumped-storage | plant producing electricity like plant:method=water-storage and additionaly able to pump water from a lower lake to the storage lake when needed. | ||
run-of-the-river | plant producing electricity with turbine using stream of a river (with no storage dam) Note: Power plants in Switzerland having storage dams with a capacity less than 25% of the average expected winter production are plant:method=run-of-the-river plants. | ||
