Abstract This research summarized the basic concepts of compressed air energy storage(CAES)underground caverns from an engineering perspective, analyzed the basic structure of caverns and the main load characteristics of caverns during operation. On this basis, the basic design concept of flexible sealing structure was put forward, and the reliability design method was suggested to be adopted in the construction of underground caverns, which also provided the guidance and design principles, operation, and maintenance of CAES underground caverns.
