Among all, Compressed air energy storage (CAES) technology has proposed itself as a reliable and efficient solution to match the two sides. This paper deals with a modeled compressed air energy storage power plant which has been optimized thermodynamically through an efficient genetic algorithm code. The results of this optimized model, considered as the base case, show that the power plant is technically and financially justifiable. In order to obtain a more tangible realization, it is necessary to verify the results against the variation of key parameters. In this study, the sensitivity analysis is performed based on main parameters including plant loading and ambient condition and the resultant trends of each case are presented. This approach will help the designers to analyze the quality of their designs in different situations. © Owned by the authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2016. date: 2016 publisher: EDP Sciences official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84969787272&doi=10.1051%2fmatecconf%2f20163801013&partnerID=40&md5=b88df5936d192ce0f3e27c6414eb48f8 id_number: 10.1051/matecconf/20163801013 full_text_status: none publication: MATEC Web of Conferences volume: 38 refereed: TRUE issn: 2261236X citation: Assadi, M.K. and Shamshirgaran, S.R. and Rad, S.D.
