A few comments from ASC

...the utilities do not show up!

...the cost of the wire is too high...

!fault current limiters are expected to be a mature technology by 2025!

!there is no market pull or push for superconducting power applications...

I am still optimistic because!

Coated Conductor Manufacturers 2016

! we have a choice and we get several offers for our quotes!

! for some applications the wire cost is not the dominating factor!

! it is not yet mass manufacturing in large industrial scale!

! the range of specifications is increasing!

KIT-Zentrum Energie 8 M. Noe, Electric Power Applications of Coated Conductors, CCA Workshop, Aspen 2016

Benefits of HTS Power Applications

Impact on Power Applications ! Improved energy efficiency ! Higher power density ! New technologies (e.g. FCL, SMES) ! Higher power quality Environmently friendly

Unique features of HTS ! Highest engineering current densities at ! zero DC resistance and at high magnetic fields ! Fast transition from zero to high resistivity

Superior parameters and complete new systems are possible
