Far more efficient power generation and engines. Engines could be made smaller.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;A HREF="https://eed.llnl.gov/flow/images/LLNL_Energy_Chart300.jpg" REL="nofollow"&gt;currently 55%&lt;/A&gt; of the electricity generated in the USA is lost to distribution and generation inefficiency. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;a room temperature superconducting engine would also be very efficient and several times lighter. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;energy losses in a car are big, but to more fully help with that you need to put the engine in the wheels. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1219/1150442746_15d108e33c.jpg</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17555522/4667456983893976905/comments/default/6561776871457548994'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17555522/4667456983893976905/comments/default/6561776871457548994'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nextbigfuture.com/2008/06/new-iron-based-superconductors-show.html?showComment=1212621720000#c6561776871457548994' title=''/><author><name>bw</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07541279438184352860</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='00145893350009452750'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://nextbigfuture.com/2008/06/new-iron-based-superconductors-show.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17555522.post-4667456983893976905' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17555522/posts/default/4667456983893976905' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17555522.post-9074071173628178924</id><published>2008-06-04T15:34:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-06-04T15:34:00.000-07:00</updated><title type='text'>"If superconductors could exist at room temperatur...</title><content type='html'>"If superconductors could exist at room temperatures, the world energy crisis would be solved"&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;And how would this solve all of our energy problems?</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17555522/4667456983893976905/comments/default/9074071173628178924'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17555522/4667456983893976905/comments/default/9074071173628178924'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nextbigfuture.com/2008/06/new-iron-based-superconductors-show.html?showComment=1212618840000#c9074071173628178924' title=''/><author><name>Jonathan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18026476004883859119</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://nextbigfuture.com/2008/06/new-iron-based-superconductors-show.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17555522.post-4667456983893976905' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17555522/posts/default/4667456983893976905' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
