The Superconductivity Global Alliance (ScGA)

Advocating for a future that is greener, healthier, more prosperous, and sustainable.

Our Vision

Envisioning a Superconductive Future

Superconductivity has already enabled major advances and capabilities such as MRI, NMR, high magnetic field research and high energy physics accelerators which otherwise would not be possible. In the future, superconductivity will provide a means towards zero emission targets, for example by enabling fusion power, expanding usage of wind power, and facilitating zero-emission transportation, as well as enabling new technologies such as superconducting classical and quantum computing, water purification, new medical diagnosis and therapy tools, and new scientific breakthrough.

From the frontiers of superconductivity to mainstream technological applications.
