Compressed air energy storage denmark
On 1 January 2026, an amendment to existing legislation entered into force, paving the way for compressed air energy storage as a recognised energy storage technology in Denmark. Energinet has now been authorised to make its underground storage facilities available to commercial actors seeking to. . Through a systematic development of the Danish electrical supply system with wind power and CHP, problems with stability and electricity surplus have appeared. The electrolysis system will have a capacity of 350 MW, supported by on-site storage of 200 GWh of hydrogen, while the CAES facility will have a generation capacity of 320 MW and storage apacity of approximately 4 GWh per 12-hour cycle. The role of compressed air energy storage (CAES) in future. In Denmark at present, wind power meets 20% and combined heat and power production (CHP). . Underground energy storage in the form of compressed air and green hydrogen can provide one of the cheapest forms of energy storage using proven technology. This reflects long asset life (35 years plus), unlimited storage cycles, and significantly low capital costs. The Green Hydrogen Hub Denmark. .
