The present invention discloses an air compression system having a characteristic of storing unstable energy and a method for controlling the same. The air compression system comprises an energy conversion system, an energy storage device, a compression device, and an air storage device. The control method comprises the steps of: the energy conversion system collecting the unstable natural energy and converting the unstable energy into a mechanical energy; the energy conversion system transmitting the mechanical energy to the energy storage device for storage; the energy storage device transmitting the energy to the compression device; the compression device utilizing the energy for compressing air for at least one whole stroke; and the compression device storing the compressed air in the air storage device.
