Compressed-air energy storage (CAES) is a way to store energy for later use using compressed air. At a utility scale, energy generated during periods of low demand can be released during peak load periods. The first utility-scale CAES project was in the Huntorf power plant in Elsfleth, Germany, and is still operational . The Huntorf plant was initially developed as a load balancer for fossil-fuel-generated electricity

For short-term deployment of the storage systems, up to 2030 there are reductions in LEC of around 50% for pumped hydro, 45% for compressed air storage and 70% for hydrogen storage. The principal reason for the LEC reduction for pumped hydro is the low price of 20 €/MWh also assumed for this technology.
