Liquid Air Energy Storage (LAES) uses electricity to cool air until it liquefies, so it can be stored until an opportune moment arrives when it can be brought back to a gaseous state and used for power generation. Like other energy storage solutions, the idea of liquid air energy storage is to balance out electricity supply and demand.
