Superconducting-cable energy transport: development and perspectives.

Transport d'énergie par câbles supraconducteurs : développement et perspectives.

Author(s) : COEVOET M.

Summary

This article first presents the two main technologies involved in the design of high-critical-temperature cables for energy transport. It then reviews the various projects worldwide, in particular the EDF-Pirelli project. Finally, it presents the economic aspects of cryogenics in the construction of a superconducting link for energy transport, underlining the specific features required for use in the electricity network.
