What is compressed air energy storage (CAES)?

Future sustainable energy systems call for the introduction of integrated storage technologies. One of these technologies is compressed air energy storage (CAES). In Denmark at present, wind power meets 20% and combined heat and power production (CHP) meets 50% of the electricity demand.

Why do we need compressed air energy storage systems?

With excellent storage duration, capacity, and power, compressed air energy storage systems enable the integration of renewable energy into future electrical grids. There has been a significant limit to the adoption rate of CAES due to its reliance on underground formations for storage.

What is the theoretical background of compressed air energy storage?

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.

How is compressed air used to store and generate energy?

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.

Can compressed air energy storage improve the profitability of existing power plants?

Linden Svd, Patel M. New compressed air energy storage concept improves the profitability of existing simple cycle, combined cycle, wind energy, and landfill gas power plants. In: Proceedings of ASME Turbo Expo 2004: Power for Land, Sea, and Air; 2004 Jun 14–17; Vienna, Austria. ASME; 2004. p. 103–10. F. He, Y. Xu, X. Zhang, C. Liu, H. Chen

How is air compressed?

Air is compressed using compressors and is stored in the storage tanks. Over the surface storage tanks are used for lower rating and underground storage tanks are preferred in case of very high capacity plants. The compressor is run by the motor generator to which the excess available energy is fed.
