China “Factoid”• Current Population: 1.3 Billion Souls• All want to live like Americans• Chinese Family Priorities:
– (1) TV, (2) Washer, (3) Fridge…– Next an Air Conditioner (200 USD, 1 kW)
• Assume an average family size of three, then…
An extra 500 GW of generation capacitymust be added just to keep them cool!

Electrical Issues• Voltage – current tradeoffs
– “Cold” vs “Warm” Dielectric• AC interface (phases)
– Generate dc? Multipole, low rpm units (aka hydro)• Ripple suppression
– Filters• Cryogenics
– Pulse Tubes– “Cryobreaks”
• Mag Field Forces• Splices (R = 0?)• Charge/Discharge cycles (Faults!)• Power Electronics
– GTOs vs IGBTs– 12” wafer platforms– Cryo-Bipolars

Construction Issues• Pipe Lengths & Diameters (Transportation)• Coax vs RTD• Rigid vs Flexible?• On-Site Manufacturing
– Conductor winding (3-4 pipe lengths)– Vacuum: permanently sealed or actively pumped?
• Joints – Superconducting– Welds– Thermal Expansion (bellows)
