Super Large Energy Storage Air Compression Tunnel

China''s innovative 1.2 GWh compressed air energy storage project

A state-backed consortium is constructing China''s first large-scale compressed air energy storage (CAES) project using a fully artificial underground cavern, marking a major

Technology: Compressed Air Energy Storage

To (re-) generate electricity, the compressed air is expanded in an adapted gas turbine which is coupled to a generator. Before or during this expansion, the air must be heated to prevent it

Energy Storage in Underground Tunnels: The Future of

Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) Think of this as a massive underground balloon. During off-peak hours, excess electricity compresses air into tunnels or salt caverns.
