6 FAQs about [Wind farm air energy storage]

What is wind-driven compressed air energy storage (CAES)?

With an increasing capacity of wind energy globally, wind-driven Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) technology has gained significant momentum in recent years. However, unlike traditional CAES systems, a wind-driven CAES system operates with more frequent fluctuations due to the intermittent nature of wind power.

Can a wind-CAES tank be used to store compressed air?

As mentioned earlier, following the charging process, compressed air is stored under high-pressure . Thus, finding a location with high wind potential and suitable geologies for CAES storage components is critical for wind-CAES integration. Using an artificial tank for large-scale CAES storage proved not to be economically viable .
