Abstract :
The paper describes the preliminary results obtained in the HotSMESProject sponsored by the EU. The project has the goal to investigate the performances of the so-called High-Temperature Superconductor (HTS) when used in Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage systems (SMES) used to improve the Power Quality (PQ).
