Compressed air energy storage or gravity water storage costs 10x less than any other based on 100 year vs 10 year lifetime of the system.

About

  • 'Only 10% to 20% of the energy required to generate compressed air ever reaches the point of use' - [1]


Calculations

  • Work to compress, thus energy stored in isothermal conditions - is W = P1V1 * ln(P2/P1) [2]
    • Units of Pascals, Meters, Joules.
    • W=2E7 Pa * 0.05 cubic meters * ln(200)=5.3MJ=1.5 kWhr
    • Check.pngOk.
  • Adiabatic compression - [W = P1V1 - P2V2 / (1 - γ)] [3]
  • Let's take industrial gas cylinders with K, T, 3K, 6K standards - 300 cu ft for T [4]. 2200-2600 psi is the standard, but also 3000 PSI and 6000 PSI.
  • T type - 300 cf

Other

  • 150 PSI, 660 gal receiver tank - $3500 [5]
