Unless you user superconductors, like cooled aluminium (if I remember correctly). There is a lot of research in this area at the moment. If you cool a conductor low enough, the resistance reduces dramatically and you can transmit electricity with very little line loss.
- dagw 10y agoThe problem is that it costs lots of energy to cool things so it's difficult to end up ahead unless we make dramatic advances in high temperature superconductors.
