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.
Assessment of design and operating parameters for a small compressed air energy storage system integrated with a stand-alone renewable power plant. Journal of Energy Storage 4, 135-144. energy storage technology cost and performance asse ssment. Energy, 2020. (2019). Inter-seasonal compressed-air energy storage using saline aquifers.
Compressed air energy storage systems enable the integration of renewable energy into future electrical grids. They have excellent storage duration, capacity, and power. However, there has been a significant limit to the adoption rate of CAES due to its reliance on underground formations for storage.
Energy storage (ES) plays a key role in the energy transition to low-carbon economies due to the rising use of intermittent renewable energy in electrical grids. Among the different ES technologies, compressed air energy storage (CAES) can store tens to hundreds of MW of power capacity for long-term applications and utility-scale.

As an energy storage application, the first technical goal is to ensure energy conservation and high efficiency. That is, the goal is to have the energy that is discharged as electricity, after the storage interval, be as close to the total energy (electricity or in other forms, such as fuels) that entered the CAES plant.
