Superconductors are materials that have the ability to conduct electricity with almost no resistance. When cooled below a certain temperature, usually around -269°C, these materials become superconductors, allowing electricity to flow through them with no loss of energy. Superconductivity is used in many applications, ranging from MRI machines to high-speed maglev trains.

THEVA uses a unique approach to produce high temperature superconductor wire under the brand name of THEVA Pro-Line. Thanks to its outstanding performance, transporting extremely high electrical current without losses is becoming reality. In 2012, the company decided to set up the first production line for second-generation superconductors in a commercial scale in germany .

Superconductors conduct electricity with no resistance—no loss. Industry needs new materials and new device architectures to exceed the boundaries of modern semiconductor paradigms. A-axis yttrium barium copper oxide (YBCO) and other members of the REBCO or cuprate family are superconducting materials .

The newsletter is dedicated to providing timely, in-depth coverage of superconductivity and related industries. The Editor Douglas Neumann is a retired career diplomat who began writing articles for the newsletter in 2011. He became Superconductor Week’s Executive Editor at the beginning of 2019 .

Applied Superconductor Limited is a specialist developer and producer of high efficiency devices for utility and industry electrical networks employing superconductor technologies in the area of fault current management.  

Applied Superconductor's Superconducting Fault Current Limiters (SFCLs) protect high-voltage electricity networks from the damaging effects of faults by blocking current surges that arise when short-circuits occur. The company's solutions reduce asset management costs whilst improving network safety, stability and efficiency. Fault Current Limiters support the connection of renewable energy generators to distribution networks assisting the industry to meet Low Carbon Policy targets.

While next generation electricity networks are the company's primary focus, there are a number of other sectors where its SFCLs could find application. The most important of these is in electrically powered ships where the high power cabling used requires protection against short circuits and fault currents.

ASG has been working at the technological frontier in the field of superconductivity since the beginning of its history. We have contributed to the achievement of important goals in scientific researchsuch as the discovery of the higgs boson. Our challenge for the future is to continue supporting research activity worldwide with magnets and systems providing technological advantages. The management and organization of the company as of today: chairman Davide Malacalza managing director Sergio Frattini .
