The global market for superconductors is expected to grow from $9.4 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach $16.4 billion by the end of 2030, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.8% during the forecast period of 2025 to 2030.
A superconductor is a material that can conduct electricity with zero electrical resistance when cooled below a certain temperature. The superconductor market is driven by rising demand for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and increasing investment toward maglev train and nuclear fusion projects worldwide. Due to the high level of technological advances, government investment in superconductingrelated projects, and a prominent superconducting eco-system, North America dominates the global market, led by the U.S.
The market for superconductors is seeing more cooperation between government research centers and industry participants to overcome the technical hurdles associated with manufacturing complexity and cooling, which have historically constrained the mass use of superconductors.
