Most of this energy was used for manufacturing purposes. Fig. 1 shows a deviating conclusion in 2017, ... Another idea is compressed air energy storage (CAES) that stores energy by pressurizing air into special containers or reservoirs during low demand/high ...
This action reduces the volume of the air, causing its pressure to increase. Cooling: As air is compressed, it heats up. Most compressors have mechanisms (like intercoolers or aftercoolers) to cool the compressed air and make the process more efficient. Storage: The compressed air is then directed into a storage tank.
Total compressed air system efficiency depends much more on maintaining a good supply/demand balance and using the most efficient trim compressor that is available. Also, implementing a control strategy that will shut air compressors off when their capacity is not needed has a great impact on operating efficiency.
Compressed Air Energy Storage. In the first project of its kind, the Bonneville Power Administration teamed with the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and a full complement of industrial and utility partners to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of developing compressed air energy storage (CAES) in the unique geologic setting ...

Compressing air to elevated pressures is desirable from a system point of view for two reasons. On one hand the exergy storage capacity of the CAES plant is maximized as the specific exergy of the air increases for increasing pressures (shown by Figure 2); on the other hand, as the final pressure increases the specific volume of air …
