New wind solar and compressed air energy storage
CAES technology stores energy by using surplus electricity—often generated from renewable sources such as wind or solar—to compress air, which is then stored in underground caverns or pressure vessels. When electricity demand rises, the compressed air is released to drive turbines. . China has announced a significant technological breakthrough in compressed air energy storage (CAES), with researchers developing what is described as the world's most powerful CAES compressor, a milestone expected to strengthen the country's clean energy infrastructure and long-duration energy. . A new, floating pumped hydropower system aims to cut the cost of utility-scale energy storage for wind and solar (courtesy of Sizable Energy). Support CleanTechnica's work through a Substack subscription or on Stripe. This year's sharp U-turn in federal energy policy is a head-scratcher for any. . Inside the Huadian energy storage plant in China's north-central city of Delingha, Qinghai province. It is currently the largest single electrochemical storage facility in the country (Image: Ma Mingyan / China News Service / Alamy) In February 2025, China shelved a requirement that new domestic. . As the world transitions to decarbonized energy systems, emerging long-duration energy storage technologies are crucial for supporting the large-scale deployment of renewable energy sources.
