High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) Cable has merit as large capacity transmission with a compact cable. Some fast-growing cities need to install new transmission cables and to increase network capacity rapidly, but there is no underground space to bury the cable because other infrastructure equipment is already buried. Then HTS Cable can solve these urban grid issues. Singapore's electricity demand is increasing as the economy grows. Moreover, the aging power transmission and distribution facilities are in need of renewal. For Singapore power grid, we considered the suitability of HTS Cable system based on some specifications and confirmed the benefits of introducing HTS Cable system to the electric distribution cable. In particular, HTS Cable systems including cooling system of a few lengths are designed.In this presentation, some design results of HTS Cable system are introduced, these greenhouse gas emissions are described.
