The project, which comprises two 300 MW non-combustion compressed air energy storage units, works by compressing air and injecting it into the salt caverns during periods of low demand. The stored air is then released during peak demand to drive turbines and generate electricity. The large-scale CAES uses molten salt and pressurized thermal water storage to achieve high efficiency, with power generated through two 300 MW units. [1] The first utility-scale CAES project was in the Huntorf power plant in Elsfleth, Germany. . The world's largest compressed-air energy storage (CAES) project has begun operations in Jiangsu province, central China (Harbin Electric Group press release, 27/01/2026).
