Additionally, they require large-scale heat accumulators. Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) and Liquid Air Energy Storage (LAES) are innovative technologies that utilize air for efficient energy storage. CAES stores energy by compressing air, whereas LAES technology stores energy in the form of liquid air.
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 as of 2024.

Currently, only thermo-mechanical energy storage technologies are suitable for load following in the electrical grid. This category encompasses four technologies: Pumped Hydro Energy Storage (PHS), Pumped Thermal Energy Storage (PTES), Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES), and Liquid Air Energy Storage (LAES) .
The first utility-scale diabatic compressed air energy storage project was the 290-megawatt Huntorf plant opened in 1978 in Germany using a salt dome cavern with 580 MWh energy and a 42% efficiency. A 110-megawatt plant with a capacity of 26 hours (2,860 MWh energy) was built in McIntosh, Alabama in 1991.
