4.1. Standalone liquid air energy storage In the standalone LAES system, the input is only the excess electricity, whereas the output can be the supplied electricity along with the heating or cooling output.
The increasing global demand for reliable and sustainable energy sources has fueled an intensive search for innovative energy storage solutions . Among these, liquid air energy storage (LAES) has emerged as a promising option, offering a versatile and environmentally friendly approach to storing energy at scale .
LAES is a technique used to store liquefied air in a large-scale system. Similar to CAES systems, LAES technology is charged using surplus grid electricity and discharged during periods of high electrical demand [10, 11, 12, 13].
In the storing cycle, liquefied air is stored at low pressure in an insulated tank, which functions as the energy store. A cold box is used to cool compressed air using come-around air, and a cold storage tank can be filled with liquid-phase materials such as propane and methanol, as well as solid-phase materials such as pebbles and rocks.
Hybrid LAES has compelling thermoeconomic benefits with extra cold/heat contribution. Liquid air energy storage (LAES) can offer a scalable solution for power management, with significant potential for decarbonizing electricity systems through integration with renewables.
