ABSTRACT: In this work, a fuel-free micro-scale compressed air energy storage system (micro-CAES)
was proposed, which can be used in conjunction with off-grid stand-alone photo-voltaic panels or wind
turbine units in order to minimize the dependency on centralized power system grids. Multi-stage positive
displacement compressors ...
