Type of article: Article, Review

Summary

The aim of this article is a state of the art about the superconducting large-scale applications and superconducting materials just over a century after the discovery of superconductivity (1911). Often hidden technology, superconductivity has made possible advances and discoveries in physics as well as for every day investigations outstanding tools MRI and NMR spectrometers. High critical temperature superconductivity is one of the possible and promising answers to the future challenges, sustainable development inter alia. It is an emerging and enabling technology. Some challenges still remain: materials, an efficient and inexpensive cryogenic and industrial development of new concepts. An user acceptability remains essential. Experiments on real sites will be very important to remove the remaining reluctances. A very quick overview of large scale superconducting applications is presented and three applications are discussed in more detail: tokamak, power cable and current limit fault.
