Hence, hydraulic compressed air energy storage technology has been proposed, which combines the advantages of pumped storage and compressed air energy storage technologies. This technology offers promising applications and thus has garnered considerable attention in the energy storage field.
For a gravity hydraulic energy storage system, the energy storage density is low and can be improved using CAES technology . As shown in Fig. 25, Berrada et al. introduced CAES equipment into a gravity hydraulic energy storage system and proposed a GCAHPTS system.
System description Under the same pressure, the energy density of air is higher than that of liquid. Hence, the hydraulic wind-power generation systems use high-pressure air instead of liquids to store energy. The operating states of the system includes normal power-generation, energy storage, and accumulator power-generation.
At the end of charging, the hydraulic part requires 37 % of the total power. At the beginning of discharging, the power generated by the hydraulic part constitutes 23 % of the total power. Yao et al. proposed a novel constant-pressure PHCAES system (Fig. 5).
Swinfen-Styles et al. [81, 82] proposed a power-generation and energy storage system which is driven by wind energy and combined with the UWCAES system. In this system, the generator behind the wind turbine is replaced by a compressor, which improves the uncertainty of wind power generation and reduces the number of energy conversions.
Two important developments in the energy sector should be considered in the interest of hydraulic storage: on the one hand, the regulatory context and, on the other hand, the context of energy decarbonisation. 1.1. The regulatory context The regulatory context is crucial to understanding the value of storage.
