DESCRIPTION:For many years\, Superconductor Cables have been considered a p
 otentially powerful new tool for electric utility engineers. Since the 198
 6 discovery of High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) materials that can b
 e economically cooled with inexpensive liquid nitrogen\, the utility indus
 try has been highly interested in the technology. In 2000\, the first tria
 l demonstration of an HTS cable occurred in Carrollton\, Georgia\; followe
 d by dozens of further demonstrations in the USA\, Europe\, Japan\, Korea\
 , and other countries.\n\nIn 2014\, the first permanent\, continuously uti
 lized HTS cable was installed in Essen\, Germany where it has operated fla
 wlessly for 6 years. Other permanent projects have since been planned in K
 orea and are under consideration in many countries.\n\nIn May of 2019\, th
 e US Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) approved the classificati
 on of this project as being a transmission asset and a cost recovery plan 
 for the first permanent HTS cable installation in North America with Commo
 nwealth Edison (ComEd) in Chicago. With project ground-breaking occurring 
 in July 2020 and energized in Summer of 2021\, this project represents com
 mercial adoption of the technology and is already driving many US electric
  utilities to educate and investigate this proven and newly available tech
 nology.\n\nThis presentation will be given by Michael Ross\, Managing Dire
 ctor of Superconductor Power Systems for AMSC. The presentation will inclu
 de the following discussions:\n\n- Background of High Temperature Supercon
 ductor Cable Technology\n\n- Review of Cable Components and Accessories\n\
 n- Features and Applications of HTS Cables on Utility Systems\n\n- Benefit
