Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is one of the many energy storage options that can store electric energy in the form of potential energy (compressed air) and can be deployed near central power plants or distribution centers. In response to demand, the stored energy can be discharged by expanding the stored air with a turboexpander generator.
The study presented by Wu et al. describes the thermodynamic analysis of a novel compressed air energy storage system powered by renewables. The thermal storage in this system is realized in the form of thermochemical storage, utilizing the process of the reduction of Co 3 O 4 to CoO.
Compressed-air-energy storage (CAES) is a way to store energy for later use using compressed air. At a utility scale, energy generated during periods of low demand can be released during peak load periods. The first utility-scale CAES project was in the Huntorf power plant in Elsfleth, Germany, and is still operational as of 2024.
Hydrostor has a patented Advanced Compressed Air Energy Storage (or A-CAES) technology that delivers clean energy on demand, even when solar and wind power are unavailable. A-CAES can provide energy for 8-24+ hours, helping to balance supply and demand on the grid, with an operational lifespan of 50+ years with no efficiency degradation.
Using this technology, compressed air is used to store and generate energy when needed . It is based on the principle of conventional gas turbine generation. As shown in Figure 2, CAES decouples the compression and expansion cycles of traditional gas turbines and stores energy as elastic potential energy in compressed air . Figure 2.
There are two large scale compressed air storage plants are in operation and their success encourages the technology development. A number of pilot projects in building new generation of CAES are on-going. All the projects have demonstrated the difficulties in financial investment.
