Introduction. Adiabatic compressed air energy storage (ACAES) is frequently suggested as a promising alternative for bulk electricity storage, alongside more established technologies such as pumped hydroelectric storage and, more recently, high-capacity batteries, but as yet no viable ACAES plant exists.
An everyday example was noted in 2014, where power from renewable sources accounted for 58.5% power capacity generated in that year. By December 2014, 27.7% of global power produced was from renewables as they ended up supplying 22.8% of worldwide electricity [4].As previously noted, intermittency reduces power produced and …
