DOE-sponsored study on energy benefits of high-temperature superconducting optimistic about markets & electricity savings.

Type of article: Article

Summary

Bob Lawrence & Associates (BL&A, Alexandria, Virginia) projected market entry dates for high-temperature superconductors. The first thought to achieve commercialized status will be fault current limiters in the 2003-2004 time period. Transformers and cable are projected to enter markets in 2005, with electric motors following in 2006. BL&A assume, based on past experience, that 10% market penetration will occur within five years of these multiple-unit field tests, and that products will capture 50% of the market after five more years.
