Back in his office, Lü Yongchang picked up the fountain pen on his desk, pulled out a fresh sheet of A4 paper, and began sketching.

Before long, a standard schematic appeared on the paper.

The camera beside him swiveled, carefully "observing" the drawing.

"Professor, do you want to use a superconducting magnetic energy storage device?"

The moment Lü Yongchang put down his pen, Zero's question rang out.

A hint of surprise appeared in Lü Yongchang's eyes at Zero's question.

This was probably the first time Zero had taken the initiative to infer what he was drawing.

"Zero, you recognize this?"

As soon as the words left his mouth, a faint, self-deprecating smile appeared on Lü Yongchang's face.

Of course. How could Zero possibly not recognize this thing?

At present, virtually all of humanity's data was stored with Zero. An energy storage system proposed long ago would naturally be in Zero's database.

"Yes, Professor. My database contains information on it," Zero answered matter-of-factly, unaware of what Lü Yongchang was thinking.

Superconducting magnetic energy storage device

The principle behind a superconducting magnetic energy storage device was simple: it was a coil made from superconducting material.

The power grid fed current into it, creating a magnetic field within the coil and thereby storing energy.

Thanks to the properties of the superconducting coil, the current would persist inside the closed loop.

When needed, the current could then be released.

This cycle formed an energy storage device with a simple operating principle.

Compared with conventional energy storage devices, superconducting magnetic energy storage devices had many advantages.

First, they could store energy over long periods without loss.

Second-and this was what Lü Yongchang needed-they responded quickly and had extremely powerful charging and discharging capabilities!

Taken together, those two points made this the perfect energy storage device
