HTS cable development

Oral

For over four decades, we have specialised in high-temperature superconductor (HTS) technology. The current-carrying capacity, manufacturability and practical performance of the conductors has increased significantly.
A variety of materials were considered for use as practical conductors. However, the current focus of R&D and industrial efforts is primarily, although not exclusively, on ReBCO...
