6 FAQs about [UK liquid-cooled energy storage]
What is liquid air energy storage?
Liquid air energy storage (LAES) is a technology that converts electricity into liquid air by cleaning, cooling, and compressing air until it reaches a liquid state. This stored liquid air can later be heated and re-expanded to drive turbines connected to generators, producing electricity.
What is the difference between air cooled and liquid cooled energy storage?
The implications of technology choice are particularly stark when comparing traditional air-cooled energy storage systems and liquid-cooled alternatives, such as the PowerTitan series of products made by Sungrow Power Supply Company. Among the most immediately obvious differences between the two storage technologies is container size.
Could liquid air unlock a new opportunity for long-duration energy storage?
The world’s most available substance could unlock a new opportunity for long-duration energy storage. Liquid air refers to air that has been cooled to low temperatures, causing it to condense into a liquid state. Credit: Waraphorn Aphai via Shutterstock.
What is the cost of energy storage in the UK?
It is expected to have a levelized cost of storage of GBP 114 ($143.10)/MWh. The UK Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) recently granted GBP 350,000 to a consortium featuring the Birmingham Centre for Energy Storage (BCES), Aggregate Industries, and Innovatium, a developer of liquid air energy storage (LAES) systems.
Where is Highview Power storing liquid air energy?

Liquid air energy storage firm Highview Power has raised £300 million (US$384 million) from the UK Infrastructure Bank (UKIB) and utility Centrica to immediately start building its first large-scale project.
Are liquid cooled battery energy storage systems better than air cooled?
Liquid-cooled battery energy storage systems provide better protection against thermal runaway than air-cooled systems. “If you have a thermal runaway of a cell, you’ve got this massive heat sink for the energy be sucked away into. The liquid is an extra layer of protection,” Bradshaw says.
