Superconducting power transmission cables

Superconducting power transmission cables In another thread, I mentioned that High-Tc power transmission cables were an example of an anticipated use of a technology which never came to fruition, and that the possible energy savings weren't worth the effort. Oops.
It was my impression that this would come into wide use if scientists were ever able to create true "room-temperature" superconductors.
