Liquid Air Energy Storage (LAES) is a promising energy storage technology renowned for its advantages such as geographical flexibility and high energy density.
The principle of liquid air energy storage (LAES) is illustrated schematically in Fig. 10.1. A typical LAES system operates in three steps. LAES refers to a technology that uses liquefied air or nitrogen as a storage medium.
Liquid air energy storage (LAES) is a promising technology recently proposed primarily for large-scale storage applications. It uses cryogen, or liquid air, as its energy vector.
Compared to other similar large-scale technologies such as compressed air energy storage or pumped hydroelectric energy storage, the use of liquid air as a storage medium allows a high energy density to be reached and overcomes the problem related to geological constraints.
6. Conclusions and outlook Given the high energy density, layout flexibility and absence of geographical constraints, liquid air energy storage (LAES) is a very promising thermo-mechanical storage solution, currently on the verge of industrial deployment.
Hybrid liquid air energy storage Besides the standalone LAES with cold/heat storage and recovery by itself, the LAES can be also integrated with other systems (to be termed as hybrid LAES), of which the external energy sources come from industrial processes and renewables.
The figure shows that the keyword “liquid air energy storage” had less relevance than the word “energy storage” and “liquefied gases”. This can probably be attributed to the presence of the keyword “cryogenic energy storage”, which is sometimes used to represent the same technology. Figure 12.
