Competitive advantage. CAES systems are a scalable technology that use mechanical compressors to convert electricity into potential energy stored as pressurised air, with the pressurised air expanding to generate power when needed. Unlike electrochemical batteries, this technology does not rely on toxic, resource-limited or degradable materials.
Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is a method of compressing air when energy supply is plentiful and cheap (e.g. off-peak or high renewable) and storing it for later use. The main application for CAES is grid-scale energy storage, although storage at this scale can be less efficient compared to battery storage, due to heat losses.
If the heat generated during compression can be stored and used during expansion, then the efficiency of the storage improves considerably. [4] There are several ways in which a CAES system can deal with heat. Air
