Technology: Liquid Air Energy Storage
To recover the stored energy, a highly energy-efficient pump compresses the liquid air to 100-150 bar. This pressurised liquid air is then evaporated in a heat exchange process, cooling down to approximately ambient temperature, while the very low temperature (ca. -150 oC) thermal (cold) energy is recovered and stored in a cold accumulator.
