Energy 5 012002 DOI 10.1088/2516-1083/aca26a Article PDF Liquid air energy storage (LAES) uses air as both the storage medium and working fluid, and it falls into the broad category of thermo-mechanical energy storage technologies.
LAES is a technique used to store liquefied air in a large-scale system. Similar to CAES systems, LAES technology is charged using surplus grid electricity and discharged during periods of high electrical demand [10, 11, 12, 13].
The basic principle of LAES involves liquefying and storing air to be utilized later for electricity generation. Although the liquefaction of air has been studied for many years, the concept of using LAES “cryogenics” as an energy storage method was initially proposed in 1977 and has recently gained renewed attention.
