Does anyone know what's the latest news about long-distance superconducting cables?

  Still no, still working on it. Progress is being made but I'd still characterize it as "don't hold your breath, but we'll probably get it someday".

  Its waiting on room temp superconductors I believe. Otherwise you have to cool a 1000km of cable and of course the material needs to be reasonable ductable. And dont hold your breath on room temperature superconductors, it may not even be possible...
