CES (Compressed Energy Storage)

Compressed Energy Storage (CES) is a method of storing energy by using excess energy—such as from renewable sources—to compress air or other mediums into a confined space. When energy is needed, the compressed air is released to drive turbines or generators, producing electricity. Essentially, CES captures surplus energy during low demand periods, storing it efficiently and releasing it when demand is high. This approach helps balance supply and demand, improves grid stability, and enhances the integration of renewable energy sources into the power system.
