The basic idea of CAES is to capture and store compressed air in suitable geologic structures underground when off-peak power is available or additional load is needed on the grid for balancing. The stored high-pressure air is returned to the surface and used to produce power when additional generation is needed, such as during peak demand
A CAES with an isothermal design was proposed and developed to reduce energy loss. In this system, the air is compressed and stored using an isothermal air compression method. When electricity is required, isothermal air expansion releases air from the storage cavern to generate power [ 27 ]. 2.1.

The air is compressed using surplus energy and stores the energy in the form of compressed air. When energy demand exceeds supply, the air is released and heated to drive an expansion turbine to generate electricity. CAES systems in operation in Germany and the United States are both using salt domes with volumes of several 1 Mm

Compressed air energy storage (CAES) and advanced adiabatic CAES (AA-CAES) are not assessed sufficiently from the economic perspective. The main difference between an AA-CAES and a conventional CAES plant centres on the thermal energy storage which is primarily achieved through using heat exchangers (HXs).
To address these issues, a combined cycle power system integrating compressed air energy storage and high-temperature thermal energy storage is proposed in this paper. The thermodynamic and economic models of the proposed system are developed considering the thermodynamic laws and life cycle assessment, respectively.
Energy storage systems are increasingly gaining importance with regard to their role in achieving load levelling, especially for matching intermittent sources of renewable energy with customer
