6 FAQs about [Salt cavern air energy storage system]
Can underground salt caverns be used for compressed air energy storage?
The future development and challenges of underground salt caverns for compressed air energy storage in China are discussed, and the prospects for the three key technologies of large-diameter drilling and completion and wellbore integrity, solution mining morphology control and detection, and tubing corrosion and control are considered.
What role do salt caverns play in energy storage?
With the demand for peak-shaving of renewable energy and the approach of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals, salt caverns are expected to play a more effective role in compressed air energy storage (CAES), large-scale hydrogen storage, and temporary carbon dioxide storage.
How can large-scale energy storage be implemented in salt caverns?
Compressed air and hydrogen storage are two main available large-scale energy storage technologies, which are both successfully implemented in salt caverns . Therefore, large-scale energy storage in salt caverns will also be enormously developed to deal with the intermittent and fluctuations of renewable sources at the national or grid-scale.
Are salt caverns a good choice for energy storage?
Among all the underground structures, due to their strong tightness/stability, lower proportion of cushion gas, and good operational flexibility, salt caverns are regarded as the most favorable choice for energy storage―especially for gas, hydrogen and compressed air .
How much hydrogen is stored in a salt cavern?
Using the same energy storage scale, the volume required for hydrogen storage in salt caverns is 2.77 times that for natural gas. In addition, the peak-shaving of hydrogen storage in salt caverns is rated higher, which is estimated to be 6 ∼ 12 times per year, while the average gas storage is twice per year.
How does a salt cavern store gas?
Salt cavern storage depends entirely on the low permeability of salt rock to ensure its tightness, while gas storage in hard rock caverns requires an extra impermeable layer [70, 71], and a water curtain system is often used to store oil .
