Abstract

See full text

A system includes a primary, combustion turbine based system that includes one or more power shaft assemblies including a generator or motor/generator, a compressor and an expansion turbine associated with the one or more power shaft assemblies, and a combustor to feed the expansion turbine. The primary system includes a first flow network allowing outlet air from the compressor to pass downstream to the combustor for combustion and the expansion turbine for expansion. The primary system is modified by integration of an adiabatic compressed air energy storage sub-system that includes a compressed air store and a thermal energy storage system for removing and returning thermal energy to the compressed air upon charging and discharging the store. The sub-system includes a second flow network allowing outlet air from the compressor to pass, upon charging, to the compressed air store, and to pass, upon discharging, back to the combustor and/or expansion turbine.
