Since 1988 a project has been running in Japan in which superconducting generators for a utilizing test are being developed. The aim of this paper is the development of a 200MW-class superconducting pilot generator. During development work first of 70MW-class superconducting generators, model generators, are being run in order to clarify the problems in manufacturing and operating of the pilot generator. To date, designing of the model generator and the development of the components, especially the superconductors for the generator have been done as scheduled. Details of the development for the superconductor installed in the rotor are described.
