Critical technologies in the construction of underground artificial chamber for compressed air energy storage systems

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 513-529, December 2025.
This schematic illustrates an artificial chamber‐based compressed air energy storage system. Excess electricity compresses air into sealed underground chambers. During demand peaks, pressurized air is heated, expanded, and drives turbines to generate power.
