Compressed-Air Energy Storage Preliminary Design and Site-Development Program in an Aquifer. Volume 4. Aquifer Geology. Final Report

摘要

A study sponsored by DOE and EPRI was performed to investigate the behavior and suitability of aquifers as compressed-air energy storage sites. Volume 4 forms a part of the final report that culminates the work performed in the study. Specifically, Volume 4 provides discussions on suitability of air storage in an aquifer, the geological structure of the study area, a literature review of potential areas of concern that could affect operation of a compressed-air energy storage plant, aquifer testing, Media site geological conditions, and areas of potential risk from air storage in an aquifer. This volume provides the reader with a detailed understanding of aquifer geology and describes the effects of air storage in an aquifer. (ERA citation 08:012449)
