A Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) plant works by pumping and storing air in an underground cavity or a container when excess or low-cost electricity is available. The stored energy is recovered by mixing the compressed air with natural gas. This compressed mixture is burned and expanded in a modified thermal turbine.
Several strategies are used to increase the penetration of intermittent resources in power systems. These strategies include linking the electricity system across counties or regions, the use of energy storage system, increasing the flexibility of energy demand and supply, as well as market-related regulations (REN21 2019 ).
Energy storage can increase the penetration of intermittent resources by improving power system flexibility, reducing energy curtailment and minimising system costs. By the end of 2018 the global capacity for pump hydropower storage reached 160 GW whereas the global capacity for battery storage totalled around 3 GW (REN21 2019 ).
