Non-supplementary compressed air energy storage and supplementary combustion

Can a non-supplemental combustion compressed air energy storage system improve output power quality?

In order to solve the development of renewable energy and improve the output power quality of renewable energy, a non-supplemental combustion compressed air energy storage system based on STAR-90 simulation was designed. The proportion of large power grids that accept renewable energy was analysed and studied in detail.

What is compressed air energy storage?

Cogeneration is a technology related to energy efficiency, but it is not enough to deal with the integration of renewable sources to the grid and meeting fluctuating demands. Compressed air energy storage is a promising technology that can be aggregated within cogeneration systems in order to keep up with those challenges.

Can a non compensated compressed air energy storage system solve abandoned light and wind?

The results showed that in the context of large-scale development of photovoltaic and wind energy and environmental protection, the non- compensated compressed air energy storage system was the best choice to solve the current serious problem of abandoned light and abandoned wind.

What is supplementary fire CAES?

In Ref. , CAES was categorized into supplementary fire CAES (SF-CAES) and non-supplementary fire CAES (NSF-CAES), which refers to the need for burning the fossil fuel for preheating the air before expansion . In several studies, CAES was characterized according to the type of external heat source used toward the expansion phase.

Can compressed air energy storage be combined with cogeneration?

Compressed air energy storage is a promising technology that can be aggregated within cogeneration systems in order to keep up with those challenges. Here, we present different systems found in the literature that integrate compressed air energy storage and cogeneration. The main parameters of performance are reviewed and analyzed.

What is a thermal energy storage system?

Heat from compression is stored in a thermal energy storage system (Fig. 2) for pre-heating the air before the expansion or supplying heat for users . The cold air from the expansion is used for cooling the intermediate stages of the compressor or to meet cooling demands.
