It is one of the most potential and competitive large-scale long-time energy storage technologies. Liquid air energy storage technology includes an energy storage stage and an energy release stage. In the energy storage stage, air is compressed and cooled, then enters a cold box for deep cooling and liquefaction, and the obtained liquid air is stored in a liquid air storage tank. In the energy release stage, the liquid air is subjected to temperature recovery gasification in the cold box, then enters a heat exchanger for heating, and then enters an expander set to drive a generator to generate electricity.
