To address the challenge, one of the options is to detach the power generation from consumption via energy storage. The intention of this paper is to give an overview of the current technology developments in compressed air energy storage (CAES) and the future direction of the technology development in this area.

The GESTs considered in this research are: compressed air energy storage (CAES); flywheels; lithium ion batteries; and pumped hydro storage (PHS). While only a subset of GEST options that could be considered (others include flow batteries, hydrogen, molten salt, etc.) they were selected due to differences in their look, stage of

One such technology is fly-wheel energy storage systems (FESSs). Compared with other energy storage systems, FESSs offer numerous advantages, including a long lifespan, exceptional efficiency, high power density, and minimal environmental impact.
