compressed air energy storage

Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) | PNNL

This energy storage system involves using electricity to compress air and store it in underground caverns. When electricity is needed, the compressed air is released and expands, passing through a turbine to generate electricity. There are various types of this technology including adiabatic systems and diabatic systems.

Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES)

The special thing about compressed air storage is that the air heats up strongly when being compressed from atmospheric pressure to a storage pressure of approx. 1,015 psia (70 bar). Standard multistage air compressors use inter- and after-coolers to reduce discharge temperatures to 300/350°F (149/177°C) and cavern injection air temperature
