HTS group of ENEA – Centro Ricerche Frascati developed a new HTS sector-cable design, to integrate HTS in the coil system of the fusion reactor. HTS materials increase the working range of coils compared to Low Temperature Superconducting (LTS) technologies, either at higher temperatures or at higher magnetic field levels, and in any case with greater operating margins. This technology is composed by two main elements the BRAided Stack of Tapes (BRAST) and the SECtor Assembled (SECAS) cable. The technology is available for further development and transfer in non-fusion markets, including power generation (motors, engines, generators, converters), power transmission (cables, coils) and energy storage.
