Thus, the number of publications focusing on this topic keeps increasing with the rise of projects and funding. Superconductor materials are being envisaged for Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES). It is among the most important energy storage systems particularly used in applications allowing to give stability to the electrical grids.
The ultimate goal is then to discover superconductors at room temperature. Although that SMES has been found to be a promising energy storage technology offering fast response time and high efficiency, it has some disadvantages mainly related to the cryogenic technology and high cost and posing challenges to research.
If the cost of the refrigeration process is eliminated by using a room temperature (or near room temperature) superconductor material, other technical challenges toward SMES must be taken into consideration. A superconducting magnet enable to store a great amount of energy which can be liberated in a short duration.
The inferior energy density of supercapacitors compared to batteries has resulted in the supercapacitor’s role in limited energy storage applications . The short time constant of supercapacitors makes supercapacitors very effective in overcoming the negative effects of transients on battery performance.
The super conducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) belongs to the electromagnetic ESSs. Importantly, batteries fall under the category of electrochemical. On the other hand, fuel cells (FCs) and super capacitors (SCs) come under the chemical and electrostatic ESSs.
The discovery, in 1986, of high-temperature superconductors (HTS) led to a main advance in SMES devices, letting the construction of magnets able to support high critical currents densities and fields, at higher operating temperatures. Thus, making these materials into practical conductors was the major goal.
