1. Introduction Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) has emerged as one of the most promising large-scale energy storage technologies for balancing electricity supply and demand in modern power grids. Renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power, despite their many benefits, are inherently intermittent.
2. Storage: The compressed air is stored, typically in large underground caverns such as salt domes, abandoned mines, or depleted natural gas reservoirs. Above-ground alternatives include high-pressure tanks or specially designed vessels, though these are generally more expensive and limited in capacity.
The $207.8 million facility boasts an energy storage capacity of 300 MW/1,800 MWh and occupies an area of approximately 100,000 m2. According to ZCGN, it is capable of providing uninterrupted power discharge for up to six hours, ensuring power supplies to between 200,000 and 300,000 local homes during peak consumption periods.
Key technological highlights include a one-clic k start system that simplifies operations, reducing startup times from 20 minutes to just 5 minutes. The machine efficiency has been boosted by 0.5%, enhancing overall performance. The quick-start air turbine enables rapid response during peak-shaving operations, improving grid stability.
