In recent years, global warming has intensified, and climate change issues have gained great importance. The consequences of this warming trend, along with the growth in population, have caused various proposals to be put forward to develop renewable energy sources to achieve sustainable development. Introduction of pumped storage hydropower (PSH) is a sign of this trend. These plants can store excess energy when demand is low and release it when demand is at its peak. In recent years, the development of these power plants has been followed seriously, and it is expected that investment in such plants will be increasingly high in the future. Due to the importance of meeting climate goals and reducing greenhouse gas emissions, the development of these power plants that produce electricity with minimal carbon emissions is crucial.
