LAES has the potential to drive the development of variable renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power, due to its ability to convert excess/off-peak electricity into multi megawatts hours of stored energy. When power is required, liquid air is drawn from the tanks, pumped to high pressure and heated. Click to enlarge.

Already existing highly efficient gas CHP systems additionally generate local heat and power at the factories. In Jawor (Poland), a new CO 2 -neutral engine plant is being built. The production hall uses renewable energy and reduces water consumption and waste significantly. The plant will start operating in 2019.

Just over 85% of mined oil shale was used to produce electricity and heat generation; the rest was turned into shale oil, retort gas and other valuable chemicals. Waste heat is used to generate electricity, making Enefit shale oil plants net producers of electricity. Overview of Enefit280. Click to enlarge.

The vision is fuelled by the fear of climate change and the need to find green alternatives to dirty coal, unpopular nuclear power and unreliable gas imports from Russia. Every scrap of waste food, garden trimmings and even sewage would be used to ferment gas. “There’s a relationship of trust already.

The whole operation could take less than five minutes, pretty much the same amount of time many people spend filling their gas tanks at stations today. Most charge points available today take much longer to re-energize batteries than it does to fill a gas-powered cars tank. One of the main drawbacks to charge stations is speed.
