Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is considered a mature form of deep storage due to its components being firmly “de-risked” but few projects are operating in the Western world. A project in the remote New South Wales town of Broken Hill promises to lead the way. From pv magazine print edition 3/24
To discharge, the air is released via an expander, to spin a turbine. Systems have two core components: the above-ground plant, with its turbomachinery, and the below ground storage void – which can take numerous forms. There are three different types of compressed air storage systems: diabatic, adiabatic, and isothermal.
