Yesterday a friend and I walked up to a rather interesting reservoir that had formed part of pumped storage system. In this case the power for pumping up to the reservoir 1000 feet above the river was totally derived from the flow at river level.
The reservoir was contained by a reinforced concrete square box, 192' x 192' x 15'.
