Join our ESMAP webinar series—designed for policymakers, utilities, and development partners—to learn lessons on policy and regulation for pumped storage hydropower (PSH).

In collaboration with the International Hydropower Association (IHA), experts from Hydro Tasmania and IHA will share experiences on the regulatory and policy barriers faced during PSH preparation—and the breakthroughs that unlocked progress. You will gain insights on how to navigate these barriers and build the enabling conditions for successful PSH development and implementation, even in electricity systems that are not fully liberalized. 

Come and explore practical tools to advance pumped storage across diverse market contexts.
