The DEMO200 project was a major success and marks a significant milestone on the path to sustainable production in energy-intensive industries. The final meeting with the advisory board, steering committee, and Projektträger Jülich (the project management agency appointed by the German government) has now taken place.

On 19 September 2024, the project successfully demonstrated that 200 kA can be transmitted safely and without losses using superconductors. At the closing meeting, the full scope of the project was reviewed, from preliminary tests and design to instrumentation, assembly, testing, and system integration. Lessons learned were discussed in detail.

The event concluded with a tour of our production facility followed by a shared dinner.

A follow-up project has already started, in which our superconducting busbar will be tested under real-world conditions in an aluminum smelter. More further details please click the "more info" button.
