| Abstract: | This paper presents a synopsis of literature on various options for the storage of energy from offshore based renewable energy (RE) sources. The technology in focus is compressed air energy storage (CAES). An overview of the available storage technologies and a comparison of pumped hydro storage (PHS) and CAES; these being the main contestants for bulk energy storage, is presented. A qualitative description of the thermodynamic processes involved is included. The offshore storage concepts and prototypes set-up or being investigated are also detailed. |
