Abstract

With the development of modern technology, high quality power supply becomes more desirable in everyday life. Among problems related with the power quality, the most urgent is the voltage dip; with the application of power electronics devices, the power system is polluted by harmonics. SMES (Superconducting Magnet Energy Storage) system can not only compensate the voltage dip, but also provide a load-fluctuation compensation and active power filter. In the paper the main structure of SMES system is introduced; the necessity to use SMES are demonstrated by analyzing the problem of power quality. The analysis shows that SMES system is effective in improving the power quality.
