Pumping Station
Pumping stations are facilities including pumps and equipment for pumping fluids from one place to another. They are used for a variety of infrastructure systems, such as the supply of water to canals, the drainage of low-lying land, and the removal of sewage to processing sites.
A pumping station is, by definition, an integral part of a pumped-storage hydroelectricity installation.
