The compressed air energy storage (CAES) technology is considered as an attractive bulk energy storage solution next to the pumped hydro storage, whose development potential is very limited, especially in Europe. Nowadays, the promotion of CAES in the power system will essentially depend on the economic viability of the investment project in certain
Compressors, expanders and air reservoirs play decisive croles in the whole CAES system formulation, and the descriptions of each are presented below. (1) Compressors and Expanders. Compressors and expanders are designed, or selected, according to the applications and the designed storage pressure of the air.
Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is known to have strong potential to deliver high performance energy storage at large scales for relatively low costs compared with any other solution. Although only two large-scale CAES plant are presently operational, energy is stored in the form of compressed air in a vast number of

In addition to widespread pumped hydroelectric energy storage (PHS), compressed air energy storage (CAES) is another suitable technology for large scale and long duration energy storage. India is projected to become the most populous country by the mid-2020s [ 2 ].
A process-based life cycle assessment (LCA) model was employed to model the potential environmental impacts of several compressed air energy storage systems. Similar to the LCA of fossil fuel power plants (e.g. Ref. [21]), a cradle-to-gate life cycle approach was adopted, and the functional unit of analysis was defined as 1 kWh of
