This work is development of HTS motor at DOOSAN heavy industry and Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute in Korea, and is sponsored by DAPAS program which is supported by Korean government. The final aim of the project is realization of HTS motor in the field of industry such as large driving pumps, fans and compressors for utility and industrial environments. In the first phase (2001-2004), 100 hp HTS motor was developed in order to implement the preliminary technology for the large applicable HTS motor. All of the performance characteristics are well met to the designed ones. In second phase (2004-2007), 1 MW HTS motor is developed for the purpose to fully represent the design and manufacturing issues for the larger capacity machine. The machine is 2 pole and 3600 rpm, and all of the components are completely manufactured. This machine is now under assembly. This paper summarizes the status of 1 MW HTS motor development, such as design, construction, and experimental test results.
