In superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) devices, the magnetic field created by current flowing through a superconducting coil serves as a storage medium for energy. The superconducting coil''s absence of resistive losses and the low level of losses in the solid-state power conditioning contribute to the system''s efficiency.
