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

In order to be compliant with Italian legislation requirements [38], the thermal transmittance of the buildings'' envelopes has been equated to the given threshold values (2.40 W/m 2 K for windows, 0.36 W/m 2 K for roofs, 0.40 W/m 2 K for floors, 0.38 W/m 2 K for external vertical walls), whatever the building typology is.
At present, the Italian electricity supply strongly relies on fossil power plants, which exploit resources such as coal, oil, natural gas and non renewable industrial and municipal waste [41] 2021, the total electricity production was equal to

The Italian legislative framework in the energy sector has recently undergone further significant transformations with the approval of Decree-Law 181/2023 converted into Law No. 11 of 2 February 2024, commonly known as D.L. Energia 2. This decree introduces a series of measures aimed
Energy operates mainly through two product categories: "Small&Large ESS", launched in 2014 with energy storage systems of less than 50 kW for small and medium-sized
The increasing of Renewable Energy Source (RES) generation requires power systems to become more flexible, in order to manage injections variability and uncertainty at various timeframes.Energy storage systems, such as electrochemical technologies, represent a broadly deployable asset, which could support effectively RES
Among the large-scale energy storage solutions, pumped hydro power storage and compressed air energy storage both have a high efficiency of ~70 % but suffer from geographical constraints. In comparison, clean hydrogen storage belongs to the future, which is expensive, with currently low efficiency of ~20 % [ 3 ].
Challenges related to environmental sustainability, security of energy supply, economic stability, and social aspects are identified on the way to a decarbonized energy sector [18]. Elisa Papadis

Finally, each power generator is connected to the electric load through a DC bar, on which the voltage level is kept constant. 3. Sizing-design methodology The sizing-design methodology, presented by Jannelli et al. [6], has been developed considering a renewable power plant in which the PV unit must completely meet the demand of
Highview has piloted the world''s first liquid air energy storage plant (LAES). Hosted by Scottish and Southern Energy (SSE) at Slough Heat & Power, LAES is one of only a few technologies which can be delivered today at the 50 to 100MW scale with hundreds of MWh of energy stored. Critically the technology relies on mature components, but
Compressed-air energy storage can also be employed on a smaller scale, such as exploited by air cars and air-driven locomotives, and can use high-strength (e.g., carbon-fiber) air-storage tanks. In order to retain the energy stored in compressed air, this tank should be thermally isolated from the environment; otherwise, the energy stored will

Alongside with pumped hydroelectricity storage, compressed air energy storage (CAES) is among the few grid-scale energy storage technology with power rating of 100 s MW [6], [7]. CAES operates in such a way that electrical energy is stored in the form of compressed air confined in a natural or artificial reservoir.
