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 . The Huntorf plant was initially developed as a load balancer for fossil-fuel-generated electricity
The project was designed to study the feasibility of generating peak-load power by means of a gas turbine power plant which is linked with underground compressed air storage facilities. All the evidence to date at the world''s first compressed air-storage gas turbine peaking plant at Huntorf shows that the caverns are fully capable of withstanding the …
