There are three main types of energy storage currently commercially available in Canada: Storage is playing an increasingly important role in the electricity system by improving grid reliability and power quality, and by complementing variable renewable energy sources (VRES) like wind and solar.
In Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES), air is compressed and stored in underground structures like mines, aquifers, salt caverns or old oil reservoirs, or in aboveground pressure vessels. When electricity is needed, the air is released to power a turbine and generate electricity.
Canadian compressed air storage specialist Hydrostor said that projects built with its technology have a capex range of between $175 and $250/kWh.
In Calgary, advanced battery storage systems combined with solar power enable efficient off-grid solutions. These innovations underscore a commitment to sustainable energy storage options, driving Canada’s energy transition.
