Review and prospect of compressed air energy storage
Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is a promising energy storage technology due to its cleanness, high efficiency, low cost, and long service life. This paper surveys state-of-the-art technologies of CAES, and
(PDF) Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES): Current
depleted gas reservoirs, porous aquifers, wellbores, and underwater compressed air energy storage (UCAES) systems, have also been receiving more attention for CAES . Notable characteristics of CAES
NREL Researchers Plot Energy Storage Under Our Feet
The idea is to use depleted oil and gas wells as a reservoir for the storage of compressed natural gas. As needed, the gas can be released to spin a turbine and generate electricity. The reservoir is recharged using
Justification of CO2 as the working fluid for a compressed gas energy
In the work a novel compressed gas energy storage cycle using carbon dioxide as working fluid is proposed to efficiently and economically utilize the pressure energy and
Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES)
Compressed air energy storage (CAES) plants are largely equivalent to pumped-hydro power plants in terms of their applications. But, instead of pumping water from a lower to an upper pond during periods of excess power, in a CAES
