Market CAGR for superconducting magnetic energy storage is being driven by the adoption of advanced energy storage solutions, such as Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES). As the demand for uninterrupted power supply becomes integral across various sectors, energy storage solutions are increasingly sought after to meet the rising energy needs. Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES) systems, a cutting-edge technology, store electrical energy as magnetic energy for on-demand utilization. In June 2023, Agratas Energy Storage Solutions Private Limited, a subsidiary of Tata Group, inked an agreement with the Gujarat government to establish India's inaugural gigafactory for Lithium-Ion batteries, with an initial investment of USD 1.57 billion for a 20-gigawatt unit. Meanwhile, Tata Power Solar Systems Limited secured a solar plus storage project from Solar Energy Corporation of India Ltd (SECI) in Chattisgarh, involving EPC services for a 100 MW solar power plant and a 120 MWh capacity Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), with a project outlay of approximately USD 115 million. The project is slated for commissioning in the second half of 2023.
SMES systems capitalize on the zero-resistance phenomenon, storing electricity by creating a magnetic field around the superconducting device operating below its critical temperature. The elements within the SMES systems are cooled to temperatures below their critical threshold to achieve superconductivity. Offering swift response times to load fluctuations and frequency changes, these systems mitigate challenges associated with lead-acid battery recycling. These factors are poised to drive growth in the Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage Market throughout the forecast period. As a result, it is anticipated that throughout the projection period, demand for the Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage Market will increase due to the adoption of advanced energy storage solutions, such as Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES). Thus, driving the Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage Market revenue.
The Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage Market segmentation, based on Type includes Low-Temperature and high-temperature. The low-temperature segment dominated the market, accounting for 58% of market revenue (0.04 Billion). Superconductors intended to operate at lower temperatures are typically classified as low-temperature superconductors. This is frequently accomplished by using liquid helium or other cryogenic cooling methods. The development of superconducting materials that function better at lower temperatures is expected to propel this industry's growth.
The Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage Market segmentation, based on End-User includes Power Systems, Industrial Use, Research Institutions, and Others. The power systems segment dominated the market, accounting for 58% of market revenue (0.04 Billion). As renewable energy sources like solar and wind become more integrated into power systems, there arises a demand for energy storage solutions to address the intermittency and variability associated with these sources. Within the Power Systems segment, SMEs can play a crucial role by storing surplus energy during periods of high renewable generation and releasing it during peak demand or when renewable output is low.

By region, the study provides market insights into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World. The anticipated expansion of the Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage market in North America can be attributed to several key factors. The United States has witnessed a substantial uptick in the adoption of renewable energy sources, particularly wind and solar. Renewable energy, the fastest-growing energy sector in the country, experienced a remarkable 42 percent increase from 2010 to 2020, marking a substantial 90 percent surge from 2000 to 2020. In 2020, renewables accounted for nearly 20 percent of utility-scale electricity generation, predominantly sourced from hydropower (7.3 percent) and wind power (8.4 percent). Recognizing the intermittent nature of these renewables, Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES) systems present a strategic solution by efficiently storing surplus energy during peak production periods and releasing it during periods of high demand or when renewable output is diminished.
Further, the major countries studied in the market report are the US, Canada, Germany, France, the UK, Italy, Spain, China, Japan, India, Australia, South Korea, and Brazil.
