#ElectricityGrid #supergrid #RenewableEnergy: food for thoughts from our panelists, @ClimateGilda @Supergrid_EU ENTSO-E Wimbledon EU Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators. #BeyondBestpaths

Currently, discussing #transmission #grids as a backbone to the future #electricity system at the BEST PATHS conference!

Pierre Bernard from @Supergrid_EU: #education of #consumers will be crucial to secure the transition towards #sustainable #energy systems

Thanks to everyone who joined us today for #BeyondBestpaths from Red Eléctrica and the whole #BestPaths project consortium! As Mr Fernandez says, now "The show must go on: there will be no #energytransition without #innovation"

#BestPaths final event was held last week: read more about the project results presented! bestpaths-project.eu/contents/publi… #energygrid #FP7

A small footprint, more capacity and no losses: After 4 yrs of research, the BEST PATHS consortium publishes recommendations for deployment of superconductor technology iass-potsdam.de/en/news/superc…

Conference is over, but the debate goes on - how far are #superconductors from deployment? Read the conference report from @IASS_Potsdam with a quote from ENTSO-E at: bit.ly/2P3k2b2 #beyondBestPaths #BestPaths

Florian Weber Elon Musk Tesla Or super #power #transmission from hydro and windy north to southern cities? 🏙️ Or simply to interconnect large areas to spots where energy is available at the best market price? ⚡️#superconductor #cable BEST PATHS 🇪🇺 bestpaths-project.eu/en/demonstrati…

Always fascinated by CERN achievements 😵. This time, the #MgB2 #superconductor @ 25 K in helium gas (as we used within BEST PATHS Project 🇪🇺) is laid in this flexible cryostat. ❄️🐍Impressive cooled metal python: 40 kA! ⚡️🔌the High-Luminosity #LHC. ▶️home.cern/news/news/acce…

My #TrivialPursuit #PintOfScience Edition 🎲 ❓5 (Science & Nature) = 39 K = -234°C! Jean Dandonneau champion👏🏻. MgB2 is used in #superconducting #cables (40 kA recently achieved at CERN). I will present BEST PATHS Demo at Pint of Science BE 🇧🇪⚡️🇪🇺. ▶️bestpaths-project.eu/en/demonstrati… #Pint19

And #superconductors have been commercially operated since 2006 in distribution grids (≈ 12 kV), and 2008 in transmission grids (138 kV). ⚡️🔌 A step made possible by the #HTS tapes. But CERN and BEST PATHS showed the huge potential of #MgB2 wires. businessworld.in/article/Superc…

@DelphineDgn Pint of Science FR Frédé·lect·ric Lesur ⚡️ villedebeauvais ❔5 - Quel est la T° critique du supraconducteur MgB2 (diboride de Magnésium) ? 💡Réponse : 39K = -234°C ! MgB2 est utilisé dans des cables supraconducteurs. Il y aura un démonstrateur BEST PATHS à cette soirée : pintofscience.fr/event/science-… #pint19 #défi par Frédé·lect·ric Lesur ⚡️

Even though BEST PATHS project ended several months ago, Nexans Frédé·lect·ric Lesur ⚡️ presented results on supraconducting cables to the general public at #ILoveScienceFestival this weekend in #brussels for Pint of Science BE. Students and families were equally hooked! FP7

Here is how #Google #Translate interprets "overhead line bare conductors" from 🇫🇷 to 🇬🇧 = naked airline pilots 👨🏻‍✈️😂. For electrotechnical #vocabulary, definitely prefer Electropedia, offered by IEC. ▶️ electropedia.org/iev/iev.nsf/di…

Very thin #superconducting cables could transmit the equivalent #energy of 3 nuclear plants. A solution for the future electricity motorways? Great to see Frédé·lect·ric Lesur ⚡️ explaining the results of our BEST PATHS project at #pint19BE 🔥⚡️

Great opportunity to discuss the compactness (system + trench) of #superconducting #cables amongst the available applications of #superconductivity. ⚡️BEST PATHS Demo validated as a #HVDC 320 kV class system, even for 10 kA conductor (3.2 GW). 🧠🍻 #Pint19 #Pint19BE 🇧🇪

✅ Work on an exciting 🇪🇺 BEST PATHS project ✅ Present world 1st results at #Bruxelles ✅ Create #PintOfScience Special Ed. #TrivialPursuit ✅ Meet #3DPrinting talented Pint of Science BE team ✅ Win unique tokens ✅ Move to Pint of Science FR #Beauvais for my 2nd talk ♥️#Pint19

📰 So proud to have contributed with @RTE_France & Nexans teams to this unique @BestPaths_EU Project🇪🇺 from the genesis to full-size validation⚡️. #Superconducting cable transmitting #HVDC 3.2 GW. 🙏CERN ASGSuperconductors @IASS_Potsdam ESPCI Paris - PSL ++ ▶️ nexans.com/newsroom/news/…
