Abstract
Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES) system is considered to be useful in electrical power system because of high efficiency and quick response. This is an attractive technology for load leveling and system stabilization in electrical utility. Chubu Electric Power Co., Inc. and Hitachi Ltd. have been studying SMES since 1988 and developed 1MJ SMES composed of pulsed superconducting magnet (1000A, 2H). We tested its basic characteristics in this August and power system control effect in this September. In this paper, I report on this system and several results of power system control experiments connecting this system to the simulated power system which contains generators, transmission lines and fluctuating load.
