Abstract

The present invention relates to a pneumatic energy storage device, and provides a pneumatic energy storage device using water pressure, comprising: a tank which has an opened bottom surface, and in which water and compressed air are stored; a suction pipe which has one end that is positioned inside the tank through the opened bottom surface of the tank, and the other end that is positioned outside and supplies the compressed air to the inside of the tank; a vent pipe which discharges the compressed air inside the tank to the outside of the tank; and a fixing member which is equipped on a lower side of the tank, and fixes the tank to the bottom, wherein a portion of or the entirety of the tank is submerged under the surface of the water. By said features, the invention is capable of: preventing high heat which is generated when the air is compressed, since the tank that uses and stores the compressed air makes use of the natural principle of buoyancy and water pressure of water; relatively easily removing dangerous factors such as the explosion of a high-pressure tank and the like by using the water pressure; manufacturing energy storage facilities on a large scale, and particularly, storing the high-pressure compressed air at high capacities; and applying the compressed air thus obtained to a power generation system, so that the air may be converted into another type of energy such as electricity.
