Abstract
Superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) is a most efficient system for energy storage because it stores energy directly in electrical form. The SMES concept is described and analyzed with an examination of its economic viability. The impact of high-temperature supeconductivity on SMES is explored, and a trapped energy storage (TES) innovation that may have beneficial technical and economic ramifications is introduced. In addition to presenting a broad overview, this paper may be of help to those making an evaluation of the potential impact of SMES/TES on the development of new energy sources, and to determine for which energy sources it is most appropriate.
