company news about Air liquefaction: energy storage technology meets new breakthrough

Compared with battery and other energy storage means, energy storage technology relying on green, low-carbon and pollution-free renewable energy is often more popular. In this context, as a high potential clean energy storage technology, air liquefaction energy storage is emerging.

Energy is an important material basis for the survival and development of human society. For thousands of years, how to effectively store energy for daily needs has been the goal of mankind. In recent years, as countries around the world began to establish a low-carbon development direction, the global energy system has turned its attention to renewable energy.

However, most renewable energy sources rely on the natural environment, which is unstable and uncertain. Therefore, it is a general trend to vigorously develop reliable and efficient energy storage technology. Recently, some countries have accelerated the pace of promoting the commercialization of air liquefaction energy storage, giving people the hope of low-carbon upgrading of energy storage technology.

If air liquefaction opens a new path for energy storage technology, then more new energy storage technologies released from it will bring new hope for the green and sustainable development of mankind.

In fact, the current energy storage methods are mainly divided into two categories: chemical energy storage and physical energy storage. Chemical energy storage mainly includes lithium battery, lead acid battery, sodium ion battery, etc. In physical energy storage, in addition to air liquefaction energy storage, pumping energy storage and flywheel energy storage are representative. Taking pumped energy storage as an example, it refers to pumping water from the lower pool reservoir to the upper pool reservoir during the low power load period, converting electric energy into gravitational potential energy for storage, and then generating power by releasing the water in the upper pool reservoir during the peak power load period.
