Nexans completes successful qualification testing of ‘Best Paths’ superconductor cable for HVDC power links

by

Superconducting cables could enable Europe’s power grids to meet their challenging CO2 reduction targets by helping to transfer many gigawatts (GW) of electricity over distances of several hundreds of kilometers from remote solar or wind farms to population centers without the losses associated with traditional resistive cables. Nexans has helped to bring these innovative high … Read more

Superconducting Cables EU
