During times of low demand, energy is commonly captured by compressing and storing air in an airtight location (typically between 4.0 and 8.2 MPa, such as in an underground cavern), and then using the gas to generate energy at times of higher demand [16].
Hydrostor has developed a proprietary A-CAES technology solution and built a commercial demonstration project in Ontario. The company has previously said that it had modelled the potential for California to host 15GWh of A-CAES plants, which store energy in compressed air in underground salt caverns.. The project in Kern County, Gem Energy
Sierra Leone Compressed Air Energy Storage Market is expected to grow during 2023-2029
Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is a form of mechanical energy storage that makes use of compressed air, storing it in large under or above-ground reservoirs. When energy is needed, the compressed air is released, heated, and expanded in a turbine to generate electricity.
Compressed-air-energy storage (CAES) is a way to store energy for later use using compressed air. At a utility scale, energy generated during periods of low demand can be released during peak load periods.

Compressed-air-energy storage (CAES) is a way to store energy for later use using compressed air. At a utility scale, energy generated during periods of low demand can be released during peak load periods. The first utility-scale CAES project was in the Huntorf power plant in Elsfleth, Germany, and is still operational as of 2024.
Compressed air energy storage has a significant impact on the energy sector by providing large-scale, long-duration energy storage solutions. CAES systems can store excess energy during periods of low demand and release it during peak demand, helping to balance supply and demand on the grid.
Compressed air energy storage may be stored in undersea caves in Northern Ireland. In order to achieve a near- thermodynamically-reversible process so that most of the energy is saved in the system and can be retrieved, and losses are kept negligible, a near-reversible isothermal process or an isentropic process is desired.

A promising method for energy storage and an alternative to pumped hydro storage is compressed air energy storage, with high reliability, economic feasibility and its low environmental impact. Although large scale CAES plants are still in operation, this technology is not widely implemented due to large dissipation of heat of compression.
