Magnetic Energy Storage

Superconductors can be used to build energy storage systems called Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES), which are promising as inductive pulse power source and suitable for powering electromagnetic launchers. The second generation of high critical temperature superconductors is called coated conductors or REBCO (Rare Earth Barium Copper Oxide) tapes. Their current carrying capability in high magnetic field and their thermal stability are expanding the SMES application field. The BOSSE (Bobine Supraconductrice pour le Stockage d’Energie) project aims to develop and to master the use of these superconducting tapes through two prototypes. The first one is a SMES with high energy density. Thanks to the performances of REBCO tapes, the volume energy and specific energy of existing SMES systems can be surpassed. A study has been undertaken to make the best use of the REBCO tapes and to determine the most adapted topology in order to reach our objective, which is to beat the world record of mass energy density for a superconducting coil. This objective is conflicting with the classical strategies of superconducting coil protection. A different protection approach is proposed. The second prototype of the BOSSE project is a small-scale demonstrator of a Superconducting Self-Supplied Electromagnetic Launcher (S3EL), in which a SMES is integrated around the launcher which benefits from the generated magnetic field to increase the thrust applied to the projectile. The S3EL principle and its design are presented.

Abstract Energy storage is always a significant issue in multiple fields, such as resources, technology, and environmental conservation. Among various energy storage methods, one technology has extremely high energy efficiency, achieving up to 100%. Superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) is a device that utilizes magnets made of superconducting materials. Outstanding power efficiency made this technology attractive in society. This study evaluates the SMES from multiple aspects according to published articles and data. The article introduces the benefits of this technology, including short discharge time, large power density, and long service life. On the other hand, challenges are proposed for future study. The high energy requirement of the cooling system and carbon emissions are some of the drawbacks of SMES. It’s found that SMES has been put in use in many fields, such as thermal power generation and power grid. SMES can reduce much waste of power in the energy system. The article analyses superconducting magnetic energy storage technology and gives directions for future study.

The Cost

With the cost of renewable energy near parity with fossil fuels, energy storage is paramount. We report a breakthrough on a bioinspired NRFB active-material, with greatly improved solubility, and place it in a predictive theoretical framework.
