The article's title doesn't seem to be accurate.

- It doesn't exist (there is mention of a prototype - but that's not really a debut, all the images in the article are generic).

- The $3.9M funding ended May 18th https://arpa-e.energy.gov/programs-and-initiatives/search-al... and there doesn't seem to be a related paper yet (other than this IEEE "maybe" from April)

- The project is (unfortunately) called TESLA: Tough and Ecological Supercritical Line Breaker for AC 2022: https://www.sf6andalternativescoalition.org/wp-content/uploa...
