Compressed air energy storage may be stored in undersea caves in Northern Ireland. In order to achieve a near- thermodynamically-reversible process so that most of the energy is saved in the system and can be retrieved, and losses are kept negligible, a near-reversible isothermal process or an isentropic process is desired.

A study numerically simulated an adiabatic compressed air energy storage system using packed bed thermal energy storage. The efficiency of the simulated system under continuous operation was calculated to be between 70.5% and 71%.
The efficiency of the simulated system under continuous operation was calculated to be between 70.5% and 71%. Advancements in adiabatic CAES involve the development of high-efficiency thermal energy storage systems that capture and reuse the heat generated during compression.
