Power Applications of Superconductivity in Japan and Germany

Chapter 3: HTS Power Transmission Cables The significant conclusions of this study were (1) that for transmitted powers greater than 1 GVA, the HTS conductor's critical current density must exceed 200,000 A/cm2 at liquid nitrogen temperatures in order for the overall costs to be comparable to conventional cables; and (2) that, in a 150 mm fixed diameter duct, an HTS cable can transmit up to seven times more power (to 700 MVA at 66 kV) at the same transmission cost.

American Superconductor Corporation - The alternating current (AC) power distribution cable system will be able to transmit 47 megawatts (MW) of power. HTS cables are able to conduct much greater amounts of power because the HTS wires supplied by AMSC are able to carry more than 140 times the electrical current of copper wires of the same dimensions.
