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.
Other storage includes compressed air energy storage, flywheel and thermal storage. Hydrogen electrolysers are not included. Global installed energy storage capacity by scenario, 2023 and 2030 - Chart and data by the International Energy Agency.
CAES uses compressed and pressured air to store energy . Compressor, underground storage unit, and turbine, are the main CAES components. The air is compressed and stored at a high pressure in an underground chamber and when needed, it expanded. The air is compressed while off peak and this stored energy is used during peak time.
The researchers focus on Liquid Air Energy Storage (LAES) as liquefied air is thick, so it is more convenient for long-term storage, Advanced Adiabatic CAES and Supercritical Compressed Air Energy Storage .
