Fracture initiation and propagation in the lined underground caverns for compressed air energy storage: Coupled thermo-mechanical phase-field modeling

Caichu Xia et al.

Summary: In this study, a coupled thermo-mechanical phase-field model considering cavern excavation is proposed to investigate the mechanism of fracture initiation and propagation in the CAES caverns. The model is solved using COMSOL Multiphysics and its capability is verified through comparison with existing analytical and numerical results. The influence of various factors on fracture patterns and critical internal pressure is investigated, showing that fracture patterns are mainly related to the lateral pressure coefficient and an increase in several parameters leads to an increase in the critical internal pressure inducing tensile fractures in the CAES caverns.

Carbon and energy storage in salt caverns under the background of carbon neutralization in China

Xinxing Wei et al.

Summary: China aims to reach its peak CO2 emissions in 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. Salt caverns, which can store CO2, are considered as excellent underground energy storage facilities. A correlation model is developed to predict the volume of underground salt caverns and China's CO2 emissions by 2030 based on recent data. An evaluation model for carbon capture capacity is also developed, along with a proposed method for comprehensive utilization of salt cavern energy storage. The research findings provide reference values for the large-scale development of salt caverns and carbon neutralization.

Numerical and experimental investigations of concrete lined compressed air energy storage system

Peng Li et al.

Summary: Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is studied through an in-situ air storage test in a shallow buried underground cavern. A finite element model is developed to verify the experimental results and the agreement between measured and calculated results is good. The temperature and stress response in the cavern are influenced by factors such as convection heat transfer coefficient, thermal conductivity, charging time, and leakage rate. The surrounding rock plays a crucial role in bearing the internal pressure and improving the safety of the cavern.

Potential influences of leakage through a high permeability path on shallow aquifers in compressed air energy storage in aquifers

Yi Li et al.

Summary: In this study, a coupled wellbore-reservoir underground anticline model was simulated to investigate the potential leakage influences of compressed air energy storage in aquifers. The results showed that the leakage rate in an anticline would decline and reach a relatively steady state as the cycles continue, with hysteresis effect observed in the leakage rate. This research deepens the understanding of the leakage process and aids in the evaluation and prevention of environmental contamination incidents in gas storage in aquifers.

Julian David Hunt et al.

Summary: This paper presents a novel isothermal compressed air energy storage (CAES) system that uses two floating storage vessels in the deep ocean to balance the pressure with the oceanic pressure.

High-resolution data shows China's wind and solar energy resources are enough to support a 2050 decarbonized electricity system

Mingquan Li et al.

Summary: This study provides a detailed spatial and temporal characterization of China's wind and solar energy resource potential, highlighting the need for deep decarbonization of the electric power system as the nation aims for carbon neutrality by 2060. Results show that China has vast wind and solar resource potential, enough to meet one-and-a-half times the expected electricity demand in 2050. The study emphasizes the importance of developing wind and solar energy simultaneously to take advantage of seasonal patterns, and the need to prioritize sites for renewable development and expand power transmission capacity and energy storage to balance variable renewable output with load.

Summary: A novel Pumped Thermal Energy Storage (PTES) system integrated with a Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) plant is proposed and investigated. The system operates with the same working fluid as the CSP plant and includes a Thermal Energy Storage (TES) system composed of three packed-bed tanks. Mathematical models were developed to simulate the system's performance and evaluate the thermal profiles of the TES tanks. A feasible design with an exergetic roundtrip efficiency of about 60% was proposed based on the results.

Numerical study on the impacts of layered heterogeneity on the underground process in compressed air energy storage in aquifers

Yi Li et al.

Summary: Compressed air energy storage in aquifers is a potential solution to overcome the limitation of air storage space in CAES technology and efficiently utilize intermittent renewable energy. This study focuses on the layered heterogeneity in deep aquifers and its influence on air-water-heat flow during the injection-production cyclic operation. Results show that heterogeneity distribution strongly affects air flow, leading to multi-fingering in the aquifer. Simulation results also demonstrate the advantages of heterogeneous aquifers in terms of smaller pressure fluctuation and higher energy efficiency compared to homogeneous models. A two-layer heterogeneous sequence model is discussed to facilitate site evaluation, showing that a layer with high porosity and permeability on top is more advantageous. This research deepens understanding of the role of target aquifers and helps evaluate candidate sites for compressed air energy storage.

Recent advances in methods, policies and technologies at sustainable energy systems development

Zvonimir Guzovic et al.

Summary: Following the Paris Agreement in 2015 and subsequent agreements, sustainable energy development has become a major goal for many countries. To achieve this, three major technological changes are available: energy savings on the demand side, efficiency improvements in energy production, and replacement of fossil fuels with renewable sources. The support of multidisciplinary scientific knowledge is also needed. Therefore, a series of conferences focusing on Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems (SDEWES) have been established since 2002. This paper provides an overview of research published in special issues of leading journals dedicated to these conferences, focusing on energy policy and analysis, energy savings in buildings, integrated heating and electricity systems, biomass for energy, and measurement of energy and environmental sustainability.

Determinants of overcapacity in China?s renewable energy industry: Evidence from wind, photovoltaic, and biomass energy enterprises

Shiwei Yu et al.

Summary: This study examines the determinants of overcapacity in the non-hydropower renewable energy industries in China using data from 116 listed enterprises. The study found that overcapacity is most severe in the PV industry, followed by wind and biomass industries. Enterprise profitability, government subsidies, and market structure significantly impact overcapacity, with policy coordination and financial support potentially mitigating the issue. To reduce overcapacity, government control over subsidy standards and industry entry thresholds is recommended, with a focus on improving asset return rates and domestic market demand for PV enterprises, and exploring overseas markets for biomass enterprises. Synergy in policies for the photovoltaic industry is emphasized over quantity.
