High setup costs – Building a system to store energy using compressed air is expensive because it needs special equipment and technology.; Energy loss during storage – When you keep energy by compressing air, some of it gets lost as heat, so not all the energy you put in can be used later.; Requires large space – To store a good amount of energy, you need a big area for the …
Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is a way of capturing energy for use at a later time by means of a compressor. The system uses the energy to be stored to drive the compressor. When the energy is needed, the pressurized air is released. That, in a nutshell, is how CAES works. Of course, in reality it is often more complicated.
