REBCO HTS Applications

Applications Overview

‍

Compact Fusion Systems

• HTS enables compact fusion reactors by generating ultra-strong magnetic fields that confine plasma efficiently, reducing reactor size and power requirements.

‍

Power Transmission

• HTS delivers compact, zero-loss power transmission with far higher current capacity than copper, enabling dense and efficient grid infrastructure.

‍

High-Field Magnetics

• HTS generates ultra-strong magnetic fields in compact form factors, enabling smaller, lighter, and more efficient advanced magnet technologies for research and industry.

‍

Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage

• HTS-based SMES systems rapidly store and release large amounts of power with high efficiency, long operational life, and grid-stabilizing performance.

‍

Data Centers

• HTS delivers dense, low-loss power distribution within data centers, reducing copper usage and physical footprint while supporting higher computing loads.

‍

Defense Systems

• HTS enables advanced naval propulsion, enhanced radar and sensor systems, and emerging directed-energy technologies, with strong support from U.S. defense R&D programs.
