A superconducting motor is like a conventional motor, with two major differences: It uses special, zero-resistance, high-temperature superconducting (HTS) wire, and it operates at very low temperatures. Because of these features, a superconducting motor uses less electricity to do the same amount of work when compared with other motors. A superconducting motor is also dramatically smaller in size.
