Compressed air energy storage or simply CAES is one of the many ways that energy can be stored during times of high production for use at a time when there is high electricity demand. Description CAES takes the energy delivered to the system (by wind power for example) to run an air compressor, which pressurizes air and pushes it underground
In these cases, the pre-heating of air is done through the burning of natural gas. For several reasons, not least of which is the desire not to use fossil fuels in energy storage, modern CAES
1.1. Compressed air energy storage concept. CAES, a long-duration energy storage technology, is a key technology that can eliminate the intermittence and fluctuation in renewable energy systems used for generating electric power, which is expected to accelerate renewable energy penetration [7], [11], [12], [13], [14].
For instance, a hybrid energy storage system with compressed air and hydrogen storage can realize an efficiency of 38.15%, higher than a system with pure hydrogen storage [38]. A hydro-thermal-wind-solar hybrid power system can be optimized with CAES to have higher voltage security [39] .
Two main advantages of CAES are its ability to provide grid-scale energy storage and its utilization of compressed air, which yields a low environmental burden, being neither toxic nor

2 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 [41–45]. Excess energy generated from renewable energy sources when demand is low can be stored with the application of this technology.
Liu et al. [ 45] calculated the energy density of compressed air to be 370 kJ/kg under the storage pressure of 20 MPa, which is much lower than that of diesel or gasoline. To ensure the continuous supply of compressed air during the operation, the power of the engine or the vehicle speed must be limited.
In addition to widespread pumped hydroelectric energy storage (PHS), compressed air energy storage (CAES) is another suitable technology for large scale and long duration energy storage. India is projected to become the most populous country by the mid-2020s [ 2 ].
Among all energy storage systems, the compressed air energy storage (CAES) as mechanical energy storage has shown its unique eligibility in terms of clean storage medium, scalability, high lifetime, long discharge time, low self-discharge, high durability, and relatively low capital cost per unit of stored energy.
As a novel compressed air storage technology, compressed air energy storage in aquifers (CAESA), has been proposed inspired by the experience of natural gas or CO 2 storage in aquifers. Although there is currently no existing engineering implementation of CAESA worldwide, the advantages of its wide distribution of storage space and low
Recovering compression waste heat using latent thermal energy storage (LTES) is a promising method to enhance the round-trip efficiency of compressed air energy storage (CAES) systems. In this study, a systematic thermodynamic model coupled with a concentric diffusion heat transfer model of the cylindrical packed-bed LTES is
Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is an effective solution for balancing this mismatch and therefore is suitable for use in future electrical systems to achieve a high penetration of renewable energy generation.
The special thing about compressed air storage is that the air heats up strongly when being compressed from atmospheric pressure to a storage pressure of approx. 1,015 psia (70 bar). Standard multistage air compressors use inter- and after-coolers to reduce discharge temperatures to 300/350°F (149/177°C) and cavern injection air temperature
