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 .
The compressed air storages built above the ground are designed from steel. These types of storage systems can be installed everywhere, and they also tend to produce a higher energy density. The initial capital cost for above- the-ground storage systems are very high.
There are several options for underground compressed air energy storage systems. A cavity underground, capable of sustaining the required pressure as well as being airtight can be utilised for this energy storage application. Mine shafts as well as gas fields are common examples of underground cavities ideal for this energy storage system.
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.
The main exergy storage system is the high-grade thermal energy storage. The reset of the air is kept in the low-grade thermal energy storage, which is between points 8 and 9. This stage is carried out to produce pressurized air at ambient temperature captured at point 9. The air is then stored in high-pressure storage (HPS).
