Liquid Air Energy Storage plants would be built from standard industrial equipment and technologies and can therefore be rapidly deployed. In the UK, such a network could develop into a business worth at least £1bn per year by 2050 and create 22,000 jobs. This excludes its potential economic value in the transport sector.

The liquefied air is stored in the liquid air storage unit; thus, the compression energy is stored in the form of liquid air (A12). During energy release, stored liquid air is pumped to 210 bar (A13–A14), and the pressurized liquid air is gasified to natural gas through heat exchange with seawater (A14–A15).

N2 - Liquid Air Energy Storage (LAES) is a thermo-mechanical-based energy storage technology, particularly suitable for storing a large amount of curtailed wind energy. The integration of LAES with wind power is clearly dynamic, but seldom has been addressed in terms of the integration strategy.
