    Description
    Since its discovery in 1911, superconductivity has played an increasingly important role in different fields especially for magnet technology. The non-resistive characteristic of superconducting materials makes them very attractive to achieve performances too demanding for conventional resistive materials. In this talk, salient characteristics of superconductivity and its applications will be discussed with particular focus on energy applications: magnets for fusion energy, transmission lines and superconducting energy storage systems.
