    Compressed air energy storage as backup generation capacity combined with wind energy sector in Poland - implementation possibilities
    (2015) Kuczyński, Szymon; Skokowski, Dominik H.; Włodek, Tomasz; Polański, Krzysztof
    Wind energy sector has been developing at a fast pace in many countries around the world in recent years. However, there is an issue with the unpredictability of electricity production provided by wind turbines that is caused by variability of weather. Therefore, there is need to compensate the intermittency of wind energy by means of backup power generation facilities. One of the solutions is compressed air energy storage technology (CAES). The paper discusses the CAES technology characteristics as well as economic aspects of CAES plant construction and operation. The latest achievements and developments in the field of CAES technology is presented. The paper inspects the existing CAES facilities and discusses the possibilities of implementing this technology in Poland.

    The possibility of applying CAES technology in Polish conditions
    (2014) Nagy, Stanisław; Polański, Krzysztof; Ślizowski, Jarosław
    In this paper were described the possibility of energy storage in salt caverns in Poland, using the technology CAES (Compressed Air Energy Storage), taking into account the natural conditions and parameters of existing power plants in the world. Focusing primarily on the storage part of such an installation, made initial selecting potential areas in the Poland enabling comprehensive execution of the installation - part of the ground (wind turbines, installation, gas turbine) and part of the underground (salt cavern).
