We depend on the electric power system more than ever to supply our residential, commercial and industrial sectors. To this end, new technologies and tools are being developed to provide a reliable, flexible, resilient and secure generation, transmission, and distribution system. High temperature superconductivity (HTS) is one of the technologies that has the potential to do this.

This document was developed by the International Energy Agency’s High Temperature Superconductivity Technology Collaborative Program (IEA HTS TCP). The IEA HTS TCP works to identify and assess the potential applications and benefits of superconductivity, as well as what technical, economic and regulatory barriers must be overcome to achieve them.
