Nature : LS Cable , a South Korean company based in Anyang-si near Seoul, is taking part in a program to modernize South Korea’s electricity grid. As part of that effort, LS Cable has ordered 3000 km of high- Tc superconducting wire from the Devens, Massachusetts-based American Superconductor . Although the dollar value of the sale has not been announced, its scale makes it the largest for superconducting wire. Nature‘s Joseph Milton reports on the deal and its implications.
