It will revolutionize energy generation, transport, and storage. Imagine capacitors with zero leakage when full, indefinite energy storage.
Maglev trains will be easy to build, require less energy to run, and smaller.
Practical rail/coil guns might be possible.
I've read that this material doesn't handle high amperage well, so there is a limit to how useful it is, but still.
