The liquid air storage section and the liquid air release section showed an exergy efficiency of 94.2% and 61.1%, respectively. In the system proposed, part of the cold energy released from the LNG was still wasted to the environment.
A novel liquid air energy storage (LAES) system using packed beds for thermal storage was investigated and analyzed by Peng et al. . A mathematical model was developed to explore the impact of various parameters on the performance of the system.
The research placed the efficiency for a liquid air storage system’s complete charge and discharge cycle at 20%-50%, though Highview rebutted with a 50%-60% round-trip efficiency estimation for a standalone system. Either way, LAES lags behind PSH (65%-85%) and batteries (80%-95%) in efficiency.
In this context, liquid air energy storage (LAES) has recently emerged as feasible solution to provide 10-100s MW power output and a storage capacity of GWhs.
