A Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES) system works like a big, super-efficient rechargeable battery. It stores energy by circulating electric current in a loop made of a special wire. This wire, called Superconductor,  has a unique property: it can carry electricity without losing any energy to heat, as long as it's kept very cold.

When we need to use the stored energy, we just allow the current to flow out of the loop, converting it into a form we can use. This makes the SMES system able to charge and discharge in seconds.

SMES were made before using a cryogenic fluid for refrigeration and conductors that need to be cooled near absolute zero. Our SMES uses a new generation of superconductor ( 2G-HTS) and a refrigerator for cooling making the system portable, movable  and stand alone. 

The power Conditioning System includes a power electronic converter, controller and monitoring system to insure the right form of energy for the user and control its charging and discharging. These systems are well known and commercially available.  

Our product is compatible with the electric grid and power systems making it easy to integrate and connect at the grid level or the end user level.
