Tashlyk Pumped-Storage Power Plant

Tashlyk Pumped-Storage Power Plant (Ukrainian: Ташлицька гідроакумулювальна електростанція) is a pumped-storage power station near Pivdennoukrainsk in Mykolaiv Oblast, Ukraine.

The Tashlyk Hydraulic Accumulation Station is located west of the district center of Arbuzynka, three kilometers south of Pivdennoukrainsk.

The pumped-storage plant is designed to cover peak loads in the southwestern part of the united power grid of Ukraine, and to provide a reliable baseline regime for the nuclear plant.

In the complex with the HPSS above the channel of the Southern Bug, the Kostiantynivska HPP was to be built, but the project was redeveloped after environmentalists protested.

[1] The first hydropower unit of Tashlyk HPS was launched on September 14, 2006, in pumping (engine) mode and the gradual filling of the reservoir of the PSP began, and on October 16, 2006, it was started in the generator (turbine) mode.
