Cover Story: Gran Canaria, due to its condition as an island, has an isolated energy system (IES) and depends on itself for energy production, which is obtained from (a) wind and solar energy, 19%, and (b) energy produced in the existing thermal power plants, 81%. A solution must be found to the current production system, which is already partially obsolete and must be renewed and/or dismantled, which means a change in the production cycle. In addition, incorporating a pumped hydroelectric energy storage (PHES) "Chira-Soria" plant into the Gran Canaria electricity system means another, even more important, change in the dynamics that has followed until now. This plant, which is hydraulically stabilized by a seawater desalination plant (SWRO), incorporates energy storage by storing water at high altitudes to be turned under suitable conditions. View this paper
