Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Summarize the history of compressed air energy storage (CAES) plants.
- Describe the storage requirements of CAES.
- Explain the basis of underground storage for CAES.
- Compare the advantages of different types of underground storage media.
- Describe how a conventional CAES plant operates.
- Explain why a recuperator is used in CAES.
- Identify the advantages of steam injection in CAES.
- Explain why heat must be added back to compressed air.
- Describe the benefits of CAES to the utility industry.
Certificate of Completion
