Superconductive ceramics power applications

But things can be better, and the taming of high-temperature superconductivity will assure that. We have seen how the new ceramics would affect the power, transportation, medical, defense, and electronics industries. The commercial applications will without question have a revolutionary impact on society. And, perhaps, the most important impacts have not yet even been anticipated. 

High-temperature ceramic superconductors are also promising for the application of fault current limiter, which protects the power transmission system from the damages caused by unanticipated power disturbances. The high-temperature superconducting current limiter has tremendous benefits of... 

High-temperature superconducting materials have been made using some of the transition elements. In particular, a ceramic material that is superconducting at 92 K is made from yttrium, barium, copper, and oxygen. These ceramic materials have the potential for many applications, for example, more efficient electric power transmission.
