Electrification of the world will lead to new progress and advancements in science allowing for the betterment of the human condition and quality of life for all people. Part of the thrust of electrification is the development of new underground-ed superconducting wires sheathed in liquid hydrogen coolant. The superconducting wires transmit lossless HVDC current to distribution lines of advanced conductors. The coolant keeps the Cooper pairs in the superconducting cable quantum states and also allows for a transportation fuel grid to be maintained. Superconductors work by forming bosons from coupled electrons at low temperature (high temperature superconductors HTS are still in development) and selenides, copper oxides (YBCO), and niobium tin are commonly used. The production of superconductors needs to increase and General Physics is working to develop this new technology in the United States and the rest of the world. By increasing mining resources, billet production, extrusion, cable winding, and laying of cable with coolant sheaths, a better and more long lasting solution to energy transmission and loss will be found. About 5% of electricity is lost during transmission and distribution and this undiscovered revenue in superconducting efficiency could increase efficiency in the market. What we are looking for is a replacement of old, dangerous, and inefficient traditional copper and steel wire for advanced superconducting wire in a new hydrogen economy with fusion generating plants powering pumped liquified hydrogen into underground sheaths for superconducting transmission. look for more collaborations and theory to follow.
