CAES technology stores energy by compressing air to high pressure in storage vessels or caverns, where it can be held for hours or even days.

Compressed air energy storage (CAES) can be used as long-duration storage for renewable energy-based grids. CAES systems use electrical energy to drive a compressor, and the stored compressed air can later be used to drive a turbine when electricity is needed.

Based on the bidirectional conversion traction power supply device, this paper directly integrated the photovoltaic storage distributed power generation system into the DC traction network, which not only reduced the number of traction substation planning and.

When power is needed, high-pressure air is released from storage and directed through an expander or turbine connected to a generator. As the air expands, its force spins the turbine, causing the generator to produce electricity that is fed back into the grid.
