Insight
Reed: Superconductors allow high-capacity transmission on much shorter towers
“So the benefit of a high temperature superconductor is you can jack up that current without having to jack up the voltage, and you can still get a lot of power. The reason this matters is that voltage is what determines the height of those towers.”

Von Munch: High-temperature superconductors are not needed for inertial fusion
“Something like high temperature superconductors are a relevant piece of the puzzle for steady state approaches like tokamaks instillerators. They're not relevant for inertial approaches like what we do.”
