Which country has made breakthroughs on compressed air energy storage?

By Cheng Yu | chinadaily.com.cn | Updated: 2024-05-06 19:18 China has made breakthroughs on compressed air energy storage, as the world's largest of such power station has achieved its first grid connection and power generation in China's Shandong province.

Will China's first large-scale compressed air energy storage project be commercialized?

A state-backed consortium is constructing China’s first large-scale compressed air energy storage (CAES) project using a fully artificial underground cavern, marking a major step in the technology’s commercialization.

How is China energy storage building a CAES facility?

Construction involves precision blasting, structural reinforcement, concrete lining, and a sealed steel layer to withstand an operating pressure of 14MPa. The project is led by China Energy Storage’s Henan subsidiary, which has previously developed multiple CAES facilities, including 100 MW, 150 MW, and 300 MW installations.
