A novel liquid air energy storage (LAES) system using packed beds for thermal storage was investigated and analyzed by Peng et al. . A mathematical model was developed to explore the impact of various parameters on the performance of the system.
Author to whom correspondence should be addressed. In recent years, liquid air energy storage (LAES) has gained prominence as an alternative to existing large-scale electrical energy storage solutions such as compressed air (CAES) and pumped hydro energy storage (PHES), especially in the context of medium-to-long-term storage.
It is reported that a large-scale standalone LAES has an expected round-trip efficiency of (50–60%) . The key concept to improve LAES efficiency can be achieved by enhancing the overall system configuration, optimizing the thermal energy storage capabilities, and integrating with external heat sources.
Such heat can be used to increase air inlet temperature of turbine during LAES discharging process. Li et al proposed the integration of LAES with a parabolic trough based concentrated solar power (CSP) system with solar heat stored in a thermal oil at ∼300 °C–400 °C.
The pioneering work on LAES can be dated back to 1977 when liquid air was proposed for peak-shaving of power grids by University of Newcastle upon Tyne . This led to subsequent research by Hitachi in 1980–1990s and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, aiming at replacing CAES in the late 1990s .
The liquid-based cold storage materials have a high specific heat and are easy to control both the temperature and the heat transfer, but are flammable and expensive. The solid-based cold storage materials are cheaper and safer but are not easy to control the temperature and heat transfer.
