6 FAQs about [Principle of thermal energy utilization of compressed air energy storage]

How does a compressed air energy storage system work?

The performance of compressed air energy storage systems is centred round the efficiency of the compressors and expanders. It is also important to determine the losses in the system as energy transfer occurs on these components. There are several compression and expansion stages: from the charging, to the discharging phases of the storage system.

How does a thermal energy storage system work?

There is cooling of the air as it flows via the thermal energy storage device, followed by an after-cooler. From this stage, there is compression of the air until required pressure is achieved. This means that the temperature of the air is again raised to 380 °C. There is an exchange of heat in the second thermal energy storage system.

Why do compressed air energy storage systems have greater heat losses?

Compressed air energy storage systems may be efficient in storing unused energy, but large-scale applications have greater heat losses because the compression of air creates heat, meaning expansion is used to ensure the heat is removed [, ]. Expansion entails a change in the shape of the material due to a change in temperature.

What determines the design of a compressed air energy storage system?

The reverse operation of both components to each other determines their design when integrated on a compressed air energy storage system. The screw and scroll are two examples of expanders, classified under reciprocating and rotary types.

What is compressed air energy storage (CAES)?

In the continuous development and production operation of the past 50 years, compressed air energy storage (CAES) has become a large-scale physical energy storage technology in addition to pumped storage, with the largest capacity, mature technology and commercialization.

Are compressed air energy storage systems a viable solution?

Compressed air energy storage (CAES) systems emerge as a viable solution to attain the target generating capacity. The fluctuations in generation patterns in wind parks create complexities in electrical grid management, requiring technological solutions to balance supply and demand.
