On October 10, 2025, Western Superconducting Technologies made a significant announcement. The company declared that it had successfully achieved mass - production of practical MgB₂ high - temperature superconducting wires through the Powder - in - Tube (PIT) technology. Each of these wires boasted a length of over 20,000 meters, and the cumulative production volume had surpassed 250 kilometers. This achievement has provided vital technical backing for the superconducting magnetic energy storage device of China Southern Power Grid. Moreover, Western Superconducting Technologies has also carved out a global first. It became the first enterprise in the world to manufacture kilometer - scale multi - core MgB₂ wires using the central magnesium diffusion method.
