4 FAQs about Air energy storage power station investment

What is a compressed air energy storage project?

A compressed air energy storage (CAES) project in Hubei, China, has come online, with 300MW/1,500MWh of capacity. The 5-hour duration project, called Hubei Yingchang, was built in two years with a total investment of CNY1.95 billion (US$270 million) and uses abandoned salt mines in the Yingcheng area of Hubei, China’s sixth-most populous province.

What is a compressed air energy storage station?

"The compressed-air energy storage station offers large capacity, long storage time (over 4 hours), and efficient response, making it comparable to small and medium-sized pumped storage power plants," Liu Yong, Secretary General of Energy Storage Application Branch of China Industrial Association of Power Sources told the Global Times on Wednesday.

Will China's first large-scale compressed air energy storage project be commercialized?

A state-backed consortium is constructing China’s first large-scale compressed air energy storage (CAES) project using a fully artificial underground cavern, marking a major step in the technology’s commercialization.

What is Xinyang air storage?

Designated as a pilot project under China’s National Energy Administration’s new energy storage initiative, the Xinyang facility pioneers an innovative air-sealing approach for artificial underground storage, offering a significant boost to the commercialization of CAES technology in China.
