Instead of using excess energy to store compressed air in caves where it can be released as needed to generate electricity, a new design for CAES, SustainX, stores compressed air in pipes SustainX takes a different tack: it uses compressed…
Washington state has two potential sites where excess electricity generated by wind turbines could be stored underground as compressed air then converted back nearly instantly when needed. Compressed air energy storage is already in use in Alabama and Germany in man-made salt…
Storing excess wind power as compressed air in underground caverns to drive turbines later when needed is cost-effective and useful. But that means siting wind farms where the caverns are. SustainX thinks they have an even more cost effective approach.…
Our electrical grid needs to be able to store energy for future use. With few exceptions, it can’t do that now. The primary way it is done is pumped hydro. At night when rates are low or when there is…
