Any thoughts on this?

I have always thought that compressed air storage was worth considering for energy storage, but it has never seemed to have gained much of a foothold. This company, General Compression, is putting forward its ideas, complete with fancy buzzwords.

 Uh oh- there's an "investor" tab....sure to raise a few eyebrows. Siemens (and probably others) has been working with compressed air storage and generation. It works, but from what I understand, isnt quite ready for prime time. Dont know about this company. Already funded 8.1 mil since 2006-

 I did see a quote that was good...

Not to be a pessimist, but I don't see how high pressure air lines could possibly be more efficient either on cost or energy than using regular wire.
