Abstract
A hydrostatically compensated, compressed gas energy storage system can include an accumulator containing a layer of compressed gas at between about 20 bar and about 90 bar above a layer of compensation liquid that has a density of at least 1500 kg/m3. A compressor and expander subsystem may be configured to selectably convey compressed gas into the accumulator and to extract gas from the accumulator. The system may be operable in at least a charging mode in which the compressor and expander subsystem conveys gas into the layer of compressed gas thereby displacing a corresponding volume of compensation liquid from the layer of compensation liquid within the accumulator out of the accumulator via the compensation liquid flow path thereby maintaining the layer of compressed gas at substantially the accumulator pressure during the charging mode.
