Overall, the Compressed Air Storage Systems (CAES) provides an effective way of producing energy for the electrical grid. Utilising other renewable sources of energy like wind and/or solar to provide energy to operate the CAES systems seem to be the only cost effective and efficient ways to run them.
The number of sites available for compressed air energy storage is higher compared to those of pumped hydro [, ]. Porous rocks and cavern reservoirs are also ideal storage sites for CAES. Gas storage locations are capable of being used as sites for storage of compressed air .
Appendix B presents an overview of the theoretical background on compressed air energy storage. Most compressed air energy storage systems addressed in literature are large-scale systems of above 100 MW which most of the time use depleted mines as the cavity to store the high pressure fluid.
CAES system components In general terms, Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is very similar to pumped hydro in terms of the large-scale applications, as well as the capacity of both in terms of output and storage.
