How Compressed Air Energy Storage WorksDiabatic Caes MethodAdiabatic MethodStorage OptionsTwo existing commercial scale CAES plants in Huntorf, Germany, and in McIntosh, Alabama, USA, as well as all the proposed designs foreseeable future are based on the diabatic method. In principle, these plants are essentially just conventional gas turbines, but where the compression of the combustion air is separated from and independent to the act...See more on cleanpower National Energy Technology Laboratory[PDF]
In PHS, potential energy is stored by pumping water to an up-hill reservoir. Energy is then recovered through a hydropower turbine when the water is released downwards.
