It uses excess energy from the local grid during the day, normally supplied by solar power, to compress and liquify the gas, storing it in steel tanks. The heat generated as a by-product during the process is stored in special Thermal Energy Storage units. When there’s a need for electricity, the process is reversed.
Against the backdrop of swift and significant cost reductions, the use of battery energy storage in power systems is increasing.
