Contrasted with traditional batteries, compressed-air systems can store energy for longer periods of time and have less upkeep. Energy from a source such as sunlight is used to compress air, giving it potential energy. Since the 1870's, CAES systems have been deployed. . Examples are: pumped hydro storage, superconducting magnetic energy storage and capacitors can be used to store energy. Each technology has its advantages and disadvantages. One essential differentiating characteristic of the different technologies is the amount of energy the technology can store. .
