Achieving aggressive decarbonization goals will require expanding global transmission grids by 2-3X over the next several decades. However, high-power transmission lines in new corridors are extremely challenging to permit, site and build. In this session, we’ll discuss the potential for high-temperature superconductors to be used to build transmission lines that carry 5-10X more power in the same right-of-way space, unlocking the ability to build more grid capacity faster and with less impact.
