Chad Augustine and his colleagues at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) see opportunity where others might simply see a hole in the ground. “It can't just be any hole in the ground,” explained Augustine, a researcher with NREL’s geothermal research group. The idea is to use depleted oil and gas. .
A similar idea, to use man-made salt caverns as a place to hold compressed air, has been proposed and implemented—but only in two places in the world. The technology is limited by geography because it. .
The NREL researchers initially considered injecting compressed air into the old wells. Augustine took that idea through the Department of Energy’s Energy I-Corps program in 2016. The. [pdf]

Thermal Energy Storage tanks work by producing thermal energy (chilled or hot water) and distributing it to the facility during peak periods by warm and chilled water entering and exiting the tank through diffusers at the top and bottom of the tank. The diffuser system is designed to minimize turbulence and allows stratification of the water. [pdf]
