17 Aug 2026 gabriels

Superconductivity was discovered more than a century ago, and it has achieved full commercialization for MRI and NMR applications. Superconducting technology has got on spotlight recent years for transportation, power network, and fusion energy, due to the significant advantages offered against its counterpart technologies, including lighter weight, compacter size, lower losses, higher efficiency, and higher power density. Therefore, many superconducting applications are moving towards higher technology readiness levels, with a fast pace. The accelerated research around superconducting applications for modern transportation is due to unique features of this technology towards decarbonisation via electrified systems. Meeting the Net Zero targets to decelerate global warming issue is the main driver of implementing the superconducting technology for aerospace, marine, and railway transport. However, many challenges still remain to be addressed for superconducting devices and applications, which will in turn pave the way for the commercialization of superconducting technology. In this article, a roadmap on electrification of transportation systems for aerospace, marine, and railway application is presented, covering challenges and solutions in design analysis, modelling, monitoring, and operation. A series of short articles are presented to outline the potential applications and solutions. These potential futuristic routes and their materials/technologies are considered/suggested for a 10-20 years time-frame.
