Building a large pumped storage hydro power plant represented an old interest of the specialists within the National Energy System, all studies, evaluations and consulting assignments required for this purpose being funded primarily by HIDROELECTRICA SA and consisting of, but not limited to, the following:
The first analyses were carried out during 1975-1985, when the Institute of Hydro Energy Studies and Design was involved in drawing up placement studies and blueprint studies for a hydro power plant with accumulation through pumping in Romania. Subsequent to their research, 17 favorable locations were found.
During 1985-1988, based on technical and economical considerations, the plans were focused on the basin of Somesul Cald, where Tarnita lake could be the inferior reservoir, the location being considered as the most favorable, from geological and hydrological point of view.
Between 1988 and 1994, procurement notices were invited and analyzed for the main energy equipment of CHEAP Tarnita-Lapustesti, received from international competitors in the field, such as Ansaldo GIE (Italy), Toshiba (Japan), Alsthom-Neyrpic (France), Hitachi (Japan), Mitsubishi (Japan).
