Control and Test of a 0.5 MVA/1 MJ SMES

A 0.5 MVA/1 MJ superconducting magnetic energy storage system (SMES) has been installed in a superconducting power substation. The SMES is designed to compensate active power fluctuations, current harmonics and reactive power of the downstream load. The system configurations and control strategies are described. Experimental and field test results show that the proposed SMES can effectively improve the power quality of the power system.
