AQUATIC SYSTEM FOR ENERGY STORAGE IN THE FORM OF COMPRESSED AIR

摘要

The present invention concerns an underwater system for energy storage, which resorts to compressed air, directed to adjust in time the generation of electrical energy by large generation systems to the consumption curves. For this purpose, the system comprises a compressed air reservoir of variable-volume (3), a system anchorage component (4), and a union tube (2) connecting the system to a means of energy generation and air compression (1). Therefore, the present invention finds its main application in the adjustment of energy generation associated with floating oceanic wind parks, to be installed far away from coastal regions, or with other energy generation oceanic systems that are subjected to irregular schemes of generation or consumption.
