OverviewTypesCompressors and expandersStorageEnvironmental ImpactHistoryProjectsStorage thermodynamics

Compressed-air-energy storage (CAES) is a way to store energy for later use using compressed air. At a utility scale, energy generated during periods of low demand can be released during peak load periods. The first utility-scale CAES project was in the Huntorf power plant in Elsfleth, Germany, and is still operational as of 2024 . The Huntorf plant was initially developed as a loa
