Up: Transportation and transmission
Advanced atomically precise systems will enable some new and promising kinds of energy transmission.
Application cases:
- Chemical energy transmission
- Mechanical energy transmission cables
- Nanotubes as electrical conductors
- new kinds of superconductors sprouting from the non mechanical technology path (speculative!)
- Thermal energy transmission via capsule transport
Packing energy storage cells in Mechanical energy transmission cables is practical for all but the most extreme power conversion speed requirements (chemomechanical converters are slower than "simple" redirections). Moderately done the tensile strength of the cable (which bears the kinetic power) does not fall much. Interesting is that there is a certain speed where the quadratically rising kinetic energy starts to exceed the linear rising chemical one.
(TODO: What is the speed approximately where kinetic energy transport exceeds chemical energy transport?
Make a speed vs chemical & kinetic power graph.)

- Power transmission
Note that "power transmission" this is a bit of a misnomer that should not be used. What is actually transmitted is energy.
What one could transmit instead of energy is power conversion capacity by
sending microcomponents for power conversion machinery across a global microcomponent redistribution system.
