High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES) devices are promising high-power storage devices, although their widespread use is limited by their high capital and operating costs. This work investigates their inclusion in smart grids when used in tandem with hydrogen fuel cells and other energy storage devices using a novel two-stage model. The first stage presents a stochastic allocation algorithm to optimally size the smart grid assets with the maximum expected profit. The next stage models the time system evolution with these optimal capacities using a dynamic Monte Carlo model to investigate the system reliability, capacity credit and loss of load expectation. A novel energy management algorithm is also presented that maximises the time with which a fleet of energy storage devices can fulfil a stochastically unknown power request. The analysis shows that from a purely economic standpoint, HTS SMES and hydrogen energy do not achieve high penetration levels (up to 10 %) due to their high costs, although the penetration levels can be improved with higher power imbalance penalties in day ahead markets. The novel capacity credit and reliability investigation shows that they can improve the reliability and capacity credit of wind turbines by approximately 30 %, thereby improving potential wind penetration levels. The optimal energy management algorithm improves the fleet lifespan and reliability by up to 9 % depending on the connected capacity.
