rom its factory a mile from the Pacific in Huntington Beach, California, TS Conductor makes 1,000 miles a year of new-fangled, revolutionary high voltage power line.
“The most critical component in the power grid is the conductor, the pipe the electrons move through,” says Huang, “but we are handicapped by century-old tech.” So what if they cost three times as much? They can carry three times as much electricity, enabling utility companies to satisfy growing electricity demand without having to build new transmission towers or fight NIMBYs to cite new long-haul lines
A naturalized U.S. citizen since 1999, Huang spent the early part of his career working for the likes of Goodrich, Cytec Engineered Materials and BAE Systems. He engineered carbon composite parts for F35, F22, F18 and V22 fighter jets. “I didn’t invent it,” says Jason, but he did capitalize on the opportunity. Leveraging his old connections he convinced China’s state power grid operator to deploy the new tech, where he says it passed a big test: getting installed by the “least skilled, mistake prone” field crews. “If your technology can be installed by apprentice linemen, you’re on to something,” says Huang.
