physics on how much
energy it takes to compress air to a very
high energy density, how much you lose in heating the air and how much of that heat is lost in the storage itself, how much you use when air rushes through a turbine like water, but unlike water running down hill whose speed / pressure stays the same, the compressed air loses force continually.
