This project aims to help transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy, maintaining power supply even when solar and wind aren’t available. The technology stores excess energy by compressing air in underground caverns, then releasing it to generate electricity as needed.
[pdf] A game-changing technology developed by NREL in collaboration with Blue Frontier Inc. offers a solution to lower a building’s electricity bills and help reduce demand on the grid: the Energy Storing and Efficient Air Conditioner (ESEAC).
[pdf] Air-cooled systems offer a lower-cost, easier-to-maintain option for small to medium-sized applications. Liquid-cooled systems are essential for high-performance, high-density, and long-duration storage needs.
