Compressed A ir Energy Storage (CAES): CAES plants use off-peak energy to compress and store air in an air-tight undergrou nd storage cavern. Upon demand, stored air is released from the cavern, heated and expanded through a combustion turbine to create electrical energy. In 1991, the first U.S. CAES facility was built in McIntosh, Alabama,
The special thing about compressed air storage is that the air heats up strongly when being compressed from atmospheric pressure to a storage pressure of approx. 1,015 psia (70 bar). Standard multistage air compressors use inter- and after-coolers to reduce discharge temperatures to 300/350°F (149/177°C) and cavern injection air temperature …
