Snowy 2.0

Overview

Learning area: science
Topics: design, energy, electricity and technologies

In this Module, learn how Snowy 2.0 will play a major role in offering stability in the Australian Energy Market by providing on-demand energy and large scale storage capacity. It will link two existing reservoirs, Tantanagara and Talbingo. At periods of high demand, Snowy 2.0 will generate electricity using this stored water and when the demand for energy is low the water will be pumped back to the upper dam.
