Abstract :
This paper summarises the inherent advantages and difficulties of the various power transmission techniques being developed to meet future demand. It is concluded that the use of EHV dc will continue to expand, that gas dielectric cables will soon supersede HPOF cables and that in the future superconducting cables will be used for multi-GVA links.
