High Power Equipment based on High-Temperature Superconductors: the Added Value from an Industrial Point of View — •Tabea Arndt, Michael Frank, Jörn Grundmann, Anne Kuhnert, Peter Kummeth, Hans-Peter Krämer, Wolfgang Nick, Marijn Oomen, and Christian Schacherer — Siemens AG, CT RTC PET SUC-DE, Erlangen, Germany

The development and production of High-Temperature Superconductors (HTS) especially in the form of long length wires and tapes has made tremendous progress in the last two decades. A first implication is the steadily increasing number of applications in power technology based on these superconductors. A second implication is that some of the challenges related to the specific devices can not be addressed by academia alone anymore. Nevertheless the industrial players will definitely need support from science and young academics.

This contribution will report on the main properties relevant for application creating `unique selling points' and the progress in HTS wires and the technology readiness level of selected devices and applications in power technology (e.g., motors, generators, magnets and fault current limiters).

There are some success stories to be covered. We will comment on remaining challenges in material and in bridging the gap of a `technology push' to a `market pull'. Finally an outlook is given on near term applications in power technology.
