Another electricity storage method is to compress and cool air, turning it into liquid air, which can be stored and expanded when needed, turning a turbine to generate electricity. This is called liquid air energy storage (LAES). The air would be cooled to temperatures of −196 °C (−320.8 °F) to become liquid.
There are many applications for electricity storage: from rechargeable batteries in small appliances to large hydroelectric dams, used for grid-scale electricity storage. They differ in the amount of energy that has to be stored and the rate (power) at which it has to be transferred in and out of the storage system.
