flag China launches world’s largest compressed air energy storage plant in Jiangsu, boosting grid stability and cutting emissions.

flag China has launched commercial operations at the world’s largest compressed air energy storage plant in Jiangsu Province, using underground salt caverns to store 2,400 megawatt-hours of energy. flag Operated by Harbin Electric Corp., the facility features two 300-megawatt units and achieves 71% efficiency by reusing heat from compression. flag It can power 600,000 homes, cut coal use by 250,000 metric tons, and reduce emissions by 600,000 tons annually. flag The project supports China’s goals of 30% nonfossil energy by 2035 and 3.6 billion kilowatts of wind and solar capacity, with advanced storage like CAES playing a key role in grid stability.
