This could see the first significant long duration energy storage (LDES) facilities in nearly 4 decades, helping to create back up renewable power and bolster the UK's energy security.
Compressed Air Energy Storage, or CAES, is essentially a form of energy storage technology. Ambient air is compressed and stored under pressure in underground caverns using surplus or off-peak power. During times of peak power usage, air is heated (and therefore expands), which drives a turbine to generate power that is then exported to the grid.
In the UK, A-CAES is being explored, with BEIS awarding £1 million to the Cheshire Energy Storage Centre, a joint venture between EDF UK R&D, io consulting and Hydrostor Inc., to investigate using Advanced CAES technology and potentially mothballed gas cavities in Cheshire.
