In the Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) systems, the energy is stored in form of pressure energy, by means of a compression of a gas (usually air) into a reservoir. When energy is required, the gas is expanded in a turbine and the energy stored in the gas is converted in mechanical energy available at the turbine shaft.

This is defined in Eq. (1), where the total energy transferred into ( Ein) or out of ( Eout) the system must equal to the change in total energy of the system (Δ Esystem) during a process. This indicates that energy cannot be created nor destroyed, it can only change forms. (1) E in − E out = Δ E system.
