Pipeline networks involve pressure changes in compression, across the pipeline, and in pressure reduction stations. These pressure changes at different points in the system create another opportunity to valorize CO2 through potential synergies with the electrical grid, via compressed gas energy storage (CGES).
Electric compressors located at the capture site would charge the energy storage system, raising the pressure from 2.8 bar to a range between 138.9 and 166.5 bar, with the discharge pressure increasing during a charge and decreasing during a discharge. The compressed gas would be cooled to a temperature of 38 ⁰C before entering the pipeline.
Repurposing offshore pipeline as energy storage (ROPES) is a concept that is being investigated by a partnership of offshore projects and services specialists Subsea 7 and offshore energy storage startup Flasc.

Energy is stored by pumping seawater into a closed chamber to compress a fixed volume of precharged inert gas. The energy can be recovered by allowing the compressed gas to push the water back out through a hydraulic turbine generator (Fig. 1).
