Overview of compressed air energy storage Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is the use of compressed air to store energy for use at a later time when required , , , , . Excess energy generated from renewable energy sources when demand is low can be stored with the application of this technology.
Appendix B presents an overview of the theoretical background on compressed air energy storage. Most compressed air energy storage systems addressed in literature are large-scale systems of above 100 MW which most of the time use depleted mines as the cavity to store the high pressure fluid.
The number of sites available for compressed air energy storage is higher compared to those of pumped hydro [, ]. Porous rocks and cavern reservoirs are also ideal storage sites for CAES. Gas storage locations are capable of being used as sites for storage of compressed air .

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.
Additionally, they require large-scale heat accumulators. Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) and Liquid Air Energy Storage (LAES) are innovative technologies that utilize air for efficient energy storage. CAES stores energy by compressing air, whereas LAES technology stores energy in the form of liquid air.
