Most compressed air energy storage systems addressed in literature are large-scale systems of above 100 MW which most of the time use depleted mines as the cavity to store the high pressure fluid. Three main concepts are researched; diabatic, adiabatic and isothermal.
The 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.
The compressed air storages built above the ground are designed from steel. These types of storage systems can be installed everywhere, and they also tend to produce a higher energy density. The initial capital cost for above- the-ground storage systems are very high.
The number of sites available for compressed air energy storage is higher compared to those of pumped hydro [, ]. Porous rocks and cavern reservoirs are also ideal storage sites for CAES. Gas storage locations are capable of being used as sites for storage of compressed air .
The reverse operation of both components to each other determines their design when integrated on a compressed air energy storage system. The screw and scroll are two examples of expanders, classified under reciprocating and rotary types.
Modularity of compressed air energy storage systems is another key issue that needs further investigation in other to make them ideal for various applications.
