Summary

The status of materials suitable for cables - switchgear - transformers - substation and overhead lines are reviewed. Some opportunities and suggestions are noted. In many cases individual CIGRE Study Committees are focussed on state-of-the-art technology; however new opportunities do exist. Advanced materials issues relate to definition - methods of reporting and proprietary concerns - all of which are addressed.
