The number of sites available for compressed air energy storage is higher compared to those of pumped hydro [, ]. Porous rocks and cavern reservoirs are also ideal storage sites for CAES. Gas storage locations are capable of being used as sites for storage of compressed air .
Compressed air energy storage in underground structures, including depleted hydrocarbon reservoirs, due to having a suitable storage capacity for air and because their geological characteristics have already been well identified, is one of the storage methods.
During this study, the underground storage of compressed air energy in a naturally fractured depleted oil reservoir was numerically simulated using the STARS module of CMG software. Air storage consists of two stages. In the first stage, the cushion gas is injected and develops the initial bubble in the reservoir.

Unlike the other energy storage solutions, CAES is not limited by application. It can be used for small-scale energy use as well as large-scale energy grids. Compressed air energy storage is more sustainable and less environmentally harmful because it does not require chemicals or other toxic materials to operate.
A suitable geological site for compressed air energy storage is given by a highly permeable porous formation and a tight cap rock to prevent the buoyant rise of the air (see Fig. 1). In northern Germany, anticline structures suitable for CAES can be found in a variety of settings (Baldschuhn et al. 2001).
