Among these, liquid air energy storage (LAES) has emerged as a promising option, offering a versatile and environmentally friendly approach to storing energy at scale.
Author to whom correspondence should be addressed. In recent years, liquid air energy storage (LAES) has gained prominence as an alternative to existing large-scale electrical energy storage solutions such as compressed air (CAES) and pumped hydro energy storage (PHES), especially in the context of medium-to-long-term storage.
4.1. Standalone liquid air energy storage In the standalone LAES system, the input is only the excess electricity, whereas the output can be the supplied electricity along with the heating or cooling output.
A novel liquid air energy storage (LAES) system using packed beds for thermal storage was investigated and analyzed by Peng et al. . A mathematical model was developed to explore the impact of various parameters on the performance of the system.
Hybrid LAES has compelling thermoeconomic benefits with extra cold/heat contribution. Liquid air energy storage (LAES) can offer a scalable solution for power management, with significant potential for decarbonizing electricity systems through integration with renewables.
LAES is a technique used to store liquefied air in a large-scale system. Similar to CAES systems, LAES technology is charged using surplus grid electricity and discharged during periods of high electrical demand [10, 11, 12, 13].
Researchers can contribute to advancing LAES as a viable large-scale energy storage solution, supporting the transition to a more sustainable and resilient energy infrastructure by pursuing these avenues. 6. Conclusion For the transportation and energy sectors, liquid air offers a viable carbon-neutral alternative.

Is grid-scale battery storage needed for renewable energy integration? Battery storage is one of several technology options that can enhance power system flexibility and enable high levels of renewable energy integration.
Energy storage requirements in photovoltaic power plants are reviewed. Li-ion and flywheel technologies are suitable for fulfilling the current grid codes. Supercapacitors will be preferred for providing future services. Li-ion and flow batteries can also provide market oriented services.
Sustainable Energy Research 10, Article number: 13 (2023) Cite this article The International Renewable Energy Agency predicts that with current national policies, targets and energy plans, global renewable energy shares are expected to reach 36% and 3400 GWh of stationary energy storage by 2050.
While flow batteries could be an alternative option, Lithium-Ion or flywheel energy storage could also be used, specially in those particular cases where very high power is required (e.g. very large photovoltaic power plants). Black start is also one of the candidates to be required in the future grid codes.
