Abstract — The SMES (Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage) is one of the very few direct electric energy storage systems. Its energy density is limited by mechanical considerations to a rather low value on the order of ten kJ/kg, but its power density can be extremely high. This makes SMES particularly interesting for high-power and short ...
