AMSC Utility Generators

Superconductor wire technology boosts efficiency, cuts costs.


Leveraging advancements in HTS superconductor wire, AMSC is able to provide a new generation of utility generators that will deliver significant advantages over conventional generators:

 

  • Compelling “first cost”
  • Higher efficiency (up to 1%) over the full range of operation, with a distinct advantage at part-load operation, reducing operational costs
  • Lower life cycle costs
  • Elimination of fast acting excitation equipment, reducing initial cost, space needs and system complexity.

Within a few years of operation, fuel cost savings alone can offset the full acquisition cost of this new technology.
