STOR-HY

💧⚡ Discover the new #EUfunded project STOR-HY: innovative storage technology and operation in #hydropower! It aims to reduce costs in pumped storage plants (#PSP) and improve the durability and recyclability of components. #Hydropower #GreenEnergy #CleanEnergy #Renewables

Bettina Geisseler and Eduard Doujak, Co-Chairs of STOR-HY’s International Advisory Board participated in the vgbe Expert Event – Innovations in Hydropower Plant Operation and Maintenance 2026 at #RENEXPO to discuss innovations in #hydropower operation, management, and #storage💧

🧠 #Innovation is powered by people From Portugal 🇵🇹 to France 🇫🇷, @la_UPC models are validated in real STOR-HY demonstrators, proving our digital solutions are ready for deployment in pumped storage plants. See how research meets reality: storhy.eu/stor-hy-in-the… #Hydropower

🧠 #Innovation is powered by people What if you could estimate component fatigue without intrusive sensors? @la_UPC is pioneering virtual sensing to enable predictive maintenance & real-time health monitoring in #hydropower. 🔗 storhy.eu/stor-hy-in-the… #STORHY #PumpedStorage

#GenderEquality isn’t just a goal for us. Through its Gender Action Plan, STOR-HY aims to foster a gender-balanced leadership and evaluate and monitor the involvement of women and men 💪 🔗 Discover more: storhy.eu/gender-equalit… #Hydropower #CleanEnergy #Renewables #WomenInSTEM

Workplace structures, societal expectations, and academic pathways all influence who enters and stays in the #hydropower sector 💧 🔗 Find out about these barriers and measures to address them: storhy.eu/gender-equalit… #STORHY #GenderEquality #CleanEnergy #Renewables #WomenInSTEM

From administrative roles to senior management, women’s representation decreases as responsibilities and decision-making power increase, and hydropower is no exception ↘ 🔗 Do you want to learn more? storhy.eu/gender-equalit… #GenderEquality #CleanEnergy #Renewables #WomenInSTEM

☀️ Solar PV: 7.3M 🌿 Liquid biofuels: 2.6M 💧 Hydropower: 2.3M 🌬️ Wind: 1.9M New @IRENA–@ilo report finds global renewable energy jobs reached 16.6 million in 2024 but growth slowed. Learn more: ow.ly/ENYY50XZwYM

💡 Closing the gender gap in hydropower starts with understanding it. Women make up nearly half of the EU’s workforce, but far fewer in the #energy and #hydropower sectors. 🔗 Learn more: storhy.eu/gender-equalit… #GenderEquality #CleanEnergy #Renewables #WomenInSTEM
