Elements on Earth move among reservoirs, which are storage places. The Earth's reservoirs include: Solid Earth, Bodies of Water, Atmosphere, and Organisms. Just like the Earth, the Water Cycle has specific reservoirs too. They are: Atmosphere, Clouds, Oceans and Lakes, Organisms, Rivers, Groundwater, and Ice. Atmosphere: The atmosphere is a reservoir for water when it is in the form of vapor. Clouds: Water is stored in the atmosphere as clouds, which are just a large collection of tiny drops of water. Oceans, Lakes, Rivers: Oceans, lakes, and rivers are large expanses of water that collect water from precipitation.
When energy is needed, the water is released to flow through turbines, generating electricity. Ninety-five percent of stored energy currently on the grid is in pumped hydro. Pros: Can store large amounts of energy â 10,000 MWh in a reservoir a kilometer in diameter and 25 meters deep. Storage installations last a half-century or more. Cons: Requires space for a deep reservoir, and water to fill it. Low storage capacity despite the large volume of water involved.
