Superconductor Corporation (Nasdaq: AMSC), a leading electricity solutions
company, announced today that it has received an order for its first
generation (1G) high temperature superconductor (HTS) wire from Condumex, the
largest wire and cable manufacturer in Mexico. Because of this substantial increase in current carrying capacity
of the wires, HTS cables utilize far fewer strands of wire than cables made
with copper. The components are also warranted to meet or exceed the
specifications of standards organizations such as ISO/IEC, CENELEC and TIA/EIA

The HTS wire will be utilized
by Condumex to manufacture and install an HTS power cable system in a Mexico
City, Mexico electrical substation."
On track for commercial introduction in the next few years, HTS cables
will offer several advantages , including very high power capacity and a very
small footprint, making them much easier to site even in dense, older urban
areas; and controllability, allowing larger amounts of power to be pumped
economically and reliably into congested areas and transferred precisely where
it is needed to relieve congestion . More information is available
at http://www. Such factors include:
uncertainties regarding the Company's ability to obtain anticipated funding
from corporate and government contracts, to successfully develop, manufacture

that a robust market may not develop for the Company's products; the risk that
strategic alliances and other contracts may be terminated; the risk that
