Yeah, but you need liquid nitrogen cooled power lines for that.

No one has room temperature super-conductors that carry anything like that kind of voltage.

"The Electranet"?? Oooo, that sounds so much sexier than "high voltage transmission lines"!

Lemmee guess, an unemployed realtor made that one up.....<G>

Gains will be made in transmission, primarily through using DC power over long distances instead of AC. But the superconducting stuff is still at the lab rat stage.....
