Renewable ocean energy sources are typically highly variable and uncontrolled, resulting in the production of low value electricity. Storing energy in the form of compressed air is a mature technology on land. Utilizing hydrostatic pressure at depth in the ocean to maintain constant pressure in the air supply chamber offers large recovery efficiency advantages.
In this paper, an ocean compressed air energy storage (OCAES) system is introduced as a utility scale energy storage option for electricity generated by wind, ocean currents, tides, and waves off the coast of North Carolina. Geographically, a location from 40km to 70km off the coast of Cape Hatteras is shown to be a good location for an OCAES system. Based
