Potential energy stored in a spring (video) | Khan Academy
10 years ago. if you stretch a spring with k = 2, with a force of 4N, the extension will be 2m. the work done by us here is 4x2=8J. in other words, the energy transferred to the spring is 8J. but, the stored energy in the spring equals 1/2x2x2^2=4J (which is half of the work done by us in stretching it).
How Compressed Air Is Used for Renewable Energy
With compressed air energy storage, the energy can be stored — and later used — at any time of the day or year, regardless of weather or other conditions.

Hydrogen Gas Compression for Efficient Storage: Balancing Energy
From a distinct perspective, hydrogen can be stored through three fundamental methods: compressed hydrogen gas (CGH 2), liquid hydrogen (LH 2), and the solid storage of hydrogen (SSH 2). High-density storage methods such as liquefaction or high-pressure compression can require significant energy input for both storage and
What is Pressure Energy?
Mike Dunlavey gives good answer explaining what pressure energy is: the energy stored in a fluid under pressure, due to its compressibility, like fluid compressed by a piston. In practice in a flowing system, significant compression is pretty unusual, unless the speeds are close to the speed of sound, and therefore it can often be neglected.
