Company Profile

Shanghai Superconductor Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Shanghai Superconductor” or “SST”) is a high-tech enterprise specializing in the R&D, production, and sales of high-temperature superconducting materials. The company’s core business covers high-temperature superconducting tapes and related technical services, with products widely applied in cutting-edge technological fields such as controlled nuclear fusion, superconducting power, and high-field magnets. Shanghai Superconductor is committed to becoming a global leader in the superconducting field. With its excellent product performance, high cost-effectiveness, and comprehensive technical services, Shanghai Superconductor has grown into one of the world’s core suppliers of second-generation high-temperature superconducting materials after years of development, with an annual production and sales volume of over thousands of kilometers.

The company’s second-generation high-temperature superconducting tapes have been appraised by domestic authoritative institutions as reaching the advanced level of international counterparts, with low-temperature strong-field characteristics, superconducting low-resistance joints, and fiber-optic embedded superconducting tapes and monitoring technologies reaching the world-leading level. Multiple international authoritative institutions have assessed that the tape products’ performance indicators rank in the top 20% globally, with a higher cost-effectiveness than domestic and international counterparts.

Closely following the national strategy and targeting market demands in the superconducting application field, Shanghai Superconductor has always adhered to product development and technological innovation. The company has successively undertaken several national and Shanghai municipal scientific and technological projects, including the “National Key Research and Development Plan” and the “Shanghai Science and Technology Commission Major Special Project,” and has been awarded special support from Shanghai’s strategic emerging industries. It has formed an integrated business system covering research, mass production, quality control, and technical services. The company is a national specialized and innovative “Little Giant” Enterprise, Shanghai “Small Giant Technology Cultivation Enterprise”, Shanghai “specialized and innovative” small and medium-sized enterprise, “Shanghai Recognized Enterprise Technology Center”, “Shanghai Patent Pilot Enterprise” and a “Pudong New Area Corporate Postdoctoral Research Workstation.” It has established “Shanghai Key Laboratory of High-Temperature Superconductor Materials and Applications” and the “Shanghai Engineering Research Center of Superconductor Material and System.” Committed to technological breakthroughs and innovation, the company has obtained over 90 independent intellectual property rights, led or participated in the drafting of eight national, industry, or group standards, and has won honors such as the First Prize of China Nonferrous Metals Industry Science and Technology Award, the First Prize of China Electrotechnical Society Science and Technology Progress Award, and the First Prize of China Electric Power Science and Technology Award.

With its excellent product performance and high-quality services, Shanghai Superconductor has established a stable and diversified high-quality customer base, providing products and services to more than 180 units worldwide. The company has established close cooperative relationships with domestic and international enterprises and research institutions, including China Southern Power Grid, China State Grid, the Institute of Plasma Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Institute of Electrical Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the United States MIT, Germany KIT, the United States CFS Company, the United Kingdom TE Company, New Zealand RRI Institute, Energy Singularity, and Lianovation Superconductor. In the future, Shanghai Superconductor will continue to adhere to the core concept of technological innovation, deepen domestic market development, actively expand into international markets, strengthen international cooperation, expand application fields, and further promote the commercialization of superconducting technology to contribute to the new era of superconducting technology.
