Brayton cycle engines compress and heat air with a fuel suitable for an internal combustion engine. For example, burning natural gas or biogas heats compressed air, and then a conventional gas turbine engine or the rear portion of a jet engine expands it to produce work. Compressed air engines can recharge an electric battery. The apparently-defunct

As the air storage pressure rises from 5.60 MPa to 8.80 MPa, the round-trip efficiency of the compressed air energy storage subsystem decreases from 88.88 % to 82.09 %, and the energy storage density increases from 6.32 MJ/m 3 to 25.94 MJ/m 3.

The tank, engine, and generator should be sized to charge up over 7 hours between 01:00 and 08:00 and release the energy during the other 17 hours of the day. I''m assuming that regardless of when during the day the energy is actually released it is either used by me or goes back into the grid and runs the meter backwards to offset my day-usage.
The special thing about compressed air storage is that the air heats up strongly when being compressed from atmospheric pressure to a storage pressure of approx. 1,015 psia (70 bar). Standard multistage air compressors use inter- and after-coolers to reduce discharge temperatures to 300/350°F (149/177°C) and cavern injection air temperature
Compressed-air energy storage (CAES) is a technology in which energy is stored in the form of compressed air, with the amount stored being dependent on the volume of the pressure storage vessel, the pressure at which the air is stored, and the temperature at which it is stored. A simplified, grid-connected CAES system is shown in

As promising as compressed air appears as a storage medium, it does have some drawbacks. When air is compressed, it heats up. When it expands, it cools. Cold air isn''t as effective at producing power when it is run through a turbine, so before the air can be used, it needs to be heated, frequently using natural gas, which produces CO

Adiabatic compressed air energy storage (A-CAES) systems capture the heat generated during gas compression and keep it in a thermal energy storage (TES) reservoir. During the discharge phase, the heat is transferred to the expanding air, which allows the fuel combustion process to be omitted from the operating cycle.
Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is a method of compressing air when energy supply is plentiful and cheap (e.g. off-peak or high renewable) and storing it for later use. The main application for CAES is grid-scale energy storage, although storage at this scale can be less efficient compared to battery storage, due to heat losses.
