This book explores the potential of magnetic superconductors in storage systems, specifically focusing on superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) systems and using the Spanish electricity system, controlled by Red Eléctrica de España (REE), as an example.

The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the economic costs associated with the manufacture and maintenance of SMES systems, as well as a regulatory analysis for their implementation in the complex Spanish electrical system. The analysis also compares this system with the regulations of other countries, providing a comprehensive case study. The book examines the possible economic and environmental benefits of using magnetic superconductors in electrical systems and provides a technical study of the use of these systems in hybrid storage systems that complement each other to optimize network performance. The study is conducted from the perspective of new distribution networks, distributed generation, and the concepts of the smart city. The book also explores potential applications and developments, such as electric vehicles. Overall, this book offers an insightful and comprehensive analysis of the potential of magnetic superconductors in storage systems. It will be an invaluable resource for researchers, engineers, and policymakers interested in the future of energy storage systems

Introduces and describes the potential use of superconducting magnetic Eenergy- storage (SMES) systems Contains more than 50 charts to help readers better understand the text Describes practical case studies that demonstrate application around the world

Enrique-Luis Molina-Ibáñez is an industrial technical engineer, telecommunications technical engineer, and has a master's degree in university research. He is also a maintenance mechanic for turbine-powered aircraft. Since 2021, he has been a teacher in professional training in the self-propelled vehicle maintenance department, specializing in maintenance processes for commercial aircraft with turbine engines. He is currently obtaining the EASA B1.1 license with the help of the maintenance company TARMAC AEROSAVE. He is the coordinator of the maintenance cycle of aircraft with turbine engines and the liaison of the training cycle with aircraft maintenance companies such as TARMAC AEROSAVE or PLD SPACE. Between 2018 and 2021, Enrique worked at the Javalambre Astrophysical Observatory in Arcos de las Salinas, Teruel. The observatory belongs to the Aragon Cosmos Physics Studies Center (Centro de Estudios de Física del Cosmos de Aragon, CEFCA). There, he collaborated in the electrical and electronic implementation of the JPCAM wide-spectrum camera, designed for photometric mapping of the northern hemisphere sky with its 56 filters. He also collaborated in the maintenance and development of different projects of the observatory facilities and the Galactica science dissemination facilities in Arcos de las Salinas, Teruel. Between 2016 and 2018, Enrique worked for TELEFONICA S.A. in the design of the telephone, data and internet network of the regional government of Aragon, as well as other public administrations in that region. For this, they evaluated the future growth of the networks in the region and designed and implemented the best solution that adjusted to what was requested by the client and within the budget of the moment. Previously, between 2012 and 2016, Enrique was in the incident management department at TELEFONICA S.A. He carried out the monitoring of the SLAs (Service Level Agreements) in the Web Channels and was responsible for compliance with the Systems Development department, incident management and unavailability of the web portals. He also coordinated evolutionary/corrective processes and second-level coordination of the customer service platforms of the Online Channel. Dr. Antonio Colmenar-Santos is a senior lecturer in the field of electrical engineering at the Department of Electrical, Electronic and Control Engineering at the National Distance Education University (UNED by its acronym in Spanish). In June 2014, Dr. Colmenar-Santos obtained a favourable resolution from the National Agency for Quality Assessment and Accreditation of Spain (ANECA by its acronym in Spanish) to be habilitated as a full professor. Dr. Colmenar-Santos has been an adjunct lecturer at both the Department of Electronic Technology at the University of Alcalá and at the Department of Electric, Electronic and Control Engineering at UNED. He has worked for AECI-ICI as a highly qualified consultant on the INTECNA project (Nicaragua) and has been part of the Spanish section of the International Solar Energy Society (ISES) and the Association for the Advancement of Computing in Education (AACE), working on a number of projects related to renewable energies and multimedia systems applied to teaching. Dr. Colmenar-Santos has been the coordinator of both the virtualisation and telematic Services at ETSII-UNED, as well as deputy head teacher (administration) and the Head of the Department of Electrical, Electronics and Control Engineering at UNED. Dr. Colmenar-Santos is the author of more than 90 papers published in top peer-reviewed journals. He has participated in more than 100 national and international conferences related to renewable energies and multimedia systems applied to teaching. As a result of his extensive experience of more than 30 years as a full-time teacher, he has authored a book on the application of non-linear global stochastic optimization for the optimization of the sizing of renewable facil
