Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is one of the many energy storage options that can store electric energy in the form of potential energy (compressed air) and can be deployed near central power plants or distribution centers. In response to demand, the stored energy can be discharged by expanding the stored air with a turboexpander generator.
The first utility-scale compressed air energy storage (CAES) system, with a capacity of 280 MW, was established in 1978 at Huntorf in Germany. To date, one more large system of this type (McIntosh with a capacity of 110 MW in the USA in 1991) and facilities of an experimental nature have been commissioned .
Most investment levels are in the $10 million to $30 million range and require investments over 3 to 5 years. Compressed air and hydrogen energy storage systems and demonstration projects require significant investments and industry collaboration.
The largest component in such systems is the storage medium for the compressed air. This means that higher pressure storage enables reduced volume and higher energy density.
For example, the state of Kansas has facilitated these processes with their Compressed Air Energy Storage Act , effective since 2009. A study that reports on promising locations, permitting processes and challenges, and mitigating solutions would help developers navigate these issues during the planning phase.
