3.1.5 Compressed Air Storage. Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) is an option in which the pressure energy is stored by compressing a gas, generally air, into a high pressure reservoir. The compressed air is expanded into a turbine to derive mechanical energy and hence run an electrical generator.
During peak demand periods, the compressed air is released from the pressurized energy-storage system and used to drive turbines to produce electricity. CAES technology requires the matching of operating pressure and flow rate of a geological storage vessel to that required by the turbo-generator equipment.
