Abstract: Scientific, technical and economical feasibility of using water as an effective storage medium of solar energy generated by photovoltaic (PV) method is presented. The idea is based on using PV modules to generate electricity, and using this electricity to re-pump water from the outlet of an already existing hydroelectric power station back to the water reservoir. This technique may provide one way of storing and reuse of solar energy.
