Compressed-air energy storage

Compressed-air energy storage can also be employed on a smaller scale, such as exploited by air cars and air-driven locomotives, and can use high-strength (e.g., carbon-fiber) air-storage tanks. In order to retain the energy stored in compressed air, this tank should be thermally isolated from the environment; otherwise, the energy stored will …

Seneca Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) Project

NYSEG evaluated two variations of this design, which have been designated as CAES Cycle 1 and CAES Cycle 1A. Cycle 1A includes a larger generation plant (nominal 210 MW) and a single compressor train. CAES Cycle 1 is a smaller generation plant (nominal 136 MW) which is the "standard" Dresser-Rand configuration.
