Compressed-Air Energy Storage: Preliminary Design and Site-Development Program in an Aquifer. Volume 3: Site-Selection Study, Part 2

摘要

The behavior and suitability of an aquifer based compressed air energy storage (CAES) facility was investigated. Aspects of the site selection were studied. Aquifer sites in the Illinois and Indiana portions of the Illinois Basin were identified and ranked. A site was selected from the four top ranked sites and was utilized as the host site for the preliminary design of a compressed air energy storage facility.
