SEUPB – SPIRE (Storage Platform for the Integration of Renewable Energy) Project
Environment related objective
To support environmental studies linked to investments in the promotion of energy from renewable sources

This environmental study is part of a larger project that is investigating the potential for compressed air to be used as an energy storage medium. This element will investigate the potential of salt caverns as a Compressed Air Energy Storage medium.
The SPIRE project will provide an informed evidence base on the potential to develop the salt caverns below Larne as a Compressed Air Energy Storage medium which, working in tandem with wind energy, will lead to reductions in carbon emissions by reducing the amount of electricity that has to be generated using conventional fossil fuels.
