New Development of Underground Energy Storage Using Mine
During mining activities, large quantities of underground caverns/tunnels are formed. Using the underground space from abandoned mines would provide a new approach for underground energy storage site selection. The installation of energy storage plants requires geological stability and medium tightness. The energy storage is characterized

Coalmines as Underground Pumped Storage Power Plants (UPP)
In 2011/2012 a basic research project, funded by Mercator Research Center Ruhr has been performed to investigate the field of application of coal mines for underground pumped storage plants (UPP). In further research, in co-operation with the Ruhrkohle AG coal mines in the Ruhr Area will be investigated (Niemann, 2011).
Going beneath the grid with underground energy storage
Known as the Earth Battery, the approach uses multiple fluids to store energy as pressure and heat underground. The system includes features of compressed-air energy storage (CAES) in that compressed air can be used. However, the Earth Battery can also use compressed CO2 along with pressurized, heated brine to store and discharge clean
