SuperNode superconductor cable shown by University of Strathclyde & ORE Catapult to be competitive with HVDC
The University of Strathclyde, the Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Catapult, and SuperNode have completed an analysis assessing the feasibility of Medium Voltage Direct Current (MVDC) technology with High Temperature Superconductor (HTS) cables for offshore wind power transmission. It shows that MVDC transmission cables based on superconductors have significantly lower lifecycle costs than conventional grid technology … Read more
