Customer ServiceCompressed air energy storage involves converting electrical energy into high-pressure compressed air that can be released at a later time to drive a turbine generator to produce electricity. This means it can work along side technologies such as wind turbines to provide and store electricity 24/7.
Customer ServiceThe performance of compressed air energy storage systems is centred round the efficiency of the compressors and expanders. It is also important to determine the losses in the system as energy transfer occurs on these components. There are several compression and expansion stages: from the charging, to the discharging phases of the storage system.
Compressed air energy storage systems may be efficient in storing unused energy, but large-scale applications have greater heat losses because the compression of air creates heat, meaning expansion is used to ensure the heat is removed [, ]. Expansion entails a change in the shape of the material due to a change in temperature.
(1) explains how electrical energy can be stored as exergy of compressed air in an idealized reversed process. The Adiabatic method achieves a much higher efficiency level of up to 70%. In the adiabatic storage method, the heat, which is produced by compression, is kept and returned into the air, as it is expanded to generate power.
There is cooling of the air as it flows via the thermal energy storage device, followed by an after-cooler. From this stage, there is compression of the air until required pressure is achieved. This means that the temperature of the air is again raised to 380 °C. There is an exchange of heat in the second thermal energy storage system.
Duing energy storage process, in addition to the heat recovery and storage of the heat of compression, the heat storage/cold storage system also uses the external and the stored cooling capacity to cool compressed air, and liquefy the air for storage.
The compressed air is stored in air tanks and the reverse operation drives an alternator which supplies the power to whatever establishment the energy storage system is serving, be it a factory or other building or whatever. LiGE estimates the efficiency of the system to be in excess of 90 percent.
