Is it possible, my idea?

AFTER you've done your research and concluded your experiments, it is time to prepare for the science fair. Ask specific questions about preparing for a science fair, including how to set up your display board, how to prepare a presentation, etc. (Please post questions about selecting a project or conducting your experiment by posting in the appropriate "area of science" forum.)

Electricity is a type of energy rather than something that has mass. Only something that has mass can be compressed (such as a gas for example). Electricity can be produced, utilized and measured but not "compressed". I hope that answers your question. All the best choosing your project.
