Introduction. Adiabatic compressed air energy storage (ACAES) is frequently suggested as a promising alternative for bulk electricity storage, alongside more established technologies such as pumped hydroelectric storage and, more recently, high-capacity batteries, but as yet no viable ACAES plant exists.
With the proposal of "Carbon peaking and carbon neutrality", Adiabatic Compressed Air Energy Storage (A-CAES) has emerged as a significant component within China''s energy storage infrastructure. But its thermodynamic efficiency and economical return need yet to be raised.
