Large-scale energy storage is so-named to distinguish it from small-scale energy storage (e.g., batteries, capacitors, and small energy tanks). The advantages of large-scale energy storage are its capacity to accommodate many energy carriers, its high security over decades of service time, and its acceptable construction and economic management.

In addition to Carlton Power''s two projects, Highview Power Storage Inc. is planning to build and operate the world''s first commercial liquid air storage system – a £250m 250MWh long duration, cryogenic energy storage system – on the Trafford Low Carbon Energy Park, which was until 1991 the site of the Carrington coal-fired power station.
Highview''s cryogenic energy storage facility would compress excess energy from solar and wind farms into air. This would then be liquified and frozen so that it can be stored for several weeks. When the energy is needed again, the liquid air is warmed up so it becomes a gas once more and, in the process, drives a generator-connected turbine – thus making the
