SuperPower, Inc.

Company Description

SuperPoSuperPower, Inc.r, Inc. is a world leader in the development and manufacturing of second generation high temperature superconducting (2G HTS) wire. Applications of superconductivity range from energy technology and alternative energy to medical technology, general industry, transportation, military, space and scientific research. SuperPower 2G HTS Wire is produced in an automated, continuous process using inexpensive metal alloy "tape" as the base substrate material. Processing methods, akin to those used in the semiconductor industry, include deposition of buffer, superconductor and protective overlayers. Expertise in transmission cables, fault current limiters, transformers, magnetic coils. SuperPower uses core capabilities in materials, cryogenics and magnetics to develop electric power components for underground transmission and distribution cables, transformers, fault current limiters and motors and generators, utilizing state-of-the-art 2G HTS wire. SuperPower is routinely producing and delivering kilometer lengths of high performance wire (in 4, 6 and 12 mm widths), which is a practical conductor that meets custom needs of a variety of applications. Quality control in every processing step. Two-time recipient of R&D100 - 2004: EXCELL Tabletop X-Ray Diffraction System; 2007 - High Performance LMO-Enabled HTS Wires.
