SANTA BARBARA, Calif., Jul 29, 2009 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX) -- SCON | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Superconductor Technologies Inc. (Nasdaq:SCON) ("STI"), a world leader in the development and production of high temperature superconducting (HTS) materials and associated technologies, announced Dr. Brian Moeckly, Director of Materials Research and Development, will present at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) HTS Program Peer Review on Aug. 5th in Alexandria, VA. The meeting brings together the world's leaders working on the research and development of HTS for electric systems.

Dr. Moeckly and Dr. Vladimir Matias of Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) will co-present a review of the STI/LANL Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) titled "Progress in Reactive Co-Evaporation on IBAD (30+15)" as part of the 2nd Generation (2G) HTS Wire Session.

Adam Shelton, STI's vice president of Product Line Management and Marketing, stated, "STI is committed to working with our partners to utilize our world class expertise in cryogenics and HTS materials to develop solutions for power applications. In December 2008, we entered a CRADA with the DOE's LANL to jointly develop a successful commercial production process for second-generation 2G HTS wire, a key enabling technology for emerging power generation and electric power grid applications. As an outgrowth of this collaboration, in June 2009, we jointly submitted DOE proposals with GE Global Research on projects for advancing the technology necessary to effectively produce 2G HTS wire for use in these innovative applications."

The U.S. DOE HTS Program resides within the Office of Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability and offers competitive opportunities for three major program thrust areas: Second-Generation HTS Wire Development, HTS Applications, and Strategic Research. The DOE's efforts to advance 2G HTS wire development are aimed at facilitating research needed for U.S. industry to scale up new processes for manufacturing superconducting wire. Innovative approaches discovered at National Laboratories are being developed into commercially viable processes by industry. This technology transfer has led to the U.S. being recognized as a leader in HTS wire development. The program's efforts are enabling U.S. industry to manufacture long-length and high-performance wire, suitable for use in utility applications.
