Superconductors can be used to build energy storage systems called Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES), which are promising as inductive pulse power source and suitable for powering electromagnetic launchers. The second generation of high critical temperature superconductors is called coated
As long as the superconductor is cold and remains superconducting the current will continue to circulate and energy is stored. The (magnetic) energy stored inside a coil comes from the magnetic field inside the cylinder. The energy of a magnetic field is proportional to B 2, hence the total energy goes like B 2 x Volume. Using the magnetic

Superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) systems use superconducting coils to efficiently store energy in a magnetic field generated by a DC current traveling through the coils. Due to the electrical resistance of a typical cable, heat energy is lost when electric current is transmitted, but this problem does not exist in an SMES system.
Superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) systems store energy in the magnetic field created by the flow of direct current in a superconducting coil that has been cryogenically cooled to a temperature below its superconducting critical temperature.
