By then the patent application “Means for Storing Fluids for Power Generation” was submitted by F.W. Gay to the US Patent Office . However, until the late 1960s the development of compressed air energy storage (CAES) was pursued neither in science nor in industry.
Today’s systems, which are based on the conservation and utilization of pressurized air, are usually recognized as compressed air energy storage (CAES) systems. The practical use of compressed air dates back to around 2000 B.C. when bellows were used to deliver a blast of air for the metal smelting process .
In the first half of the 20th century, the idea of using compressed air as electrical energy storage was proposed. The first such concept was developed in 1943 when F.W. Gay submitted his patent entitled: ‘Means for storing fluids for power generation’ .
The first such concept was developed in 1943 when F.W. Gay submitted his patent entitled: ‘Means for storing fluids for power generation’ . Already at that point, the author proposed to store off-peak electrical energy by compressing air with an electric-driven compressor and storing it in a special underground chamber.
