Summary

Korea's superconductivity technology in the power sector has progressed rapidly since the launch of the 21st Century Frontier R&D Program for superconductivity. Under this program, large-scale active research has been conducted. The program supports HTS cable, motors, transformers, fault current limiters, and basic materials for 2G wire development. Current technology is somewhat less advanced compared to developed countries such as the USA, Japan, and Europe. It is expected that the efforts and strong motivation of the Koreans will soon make the country competitive with advanced nations. In addition, the power industry has also begun to support the research and development of superconducting power technology via ETEP. Including such support, the authors review the recent progress of applied superconductivity research and development in Korea, mainly in the power sector.
