If I am recalling an article correctly - superconductors mean zero resistance electric transfer. Currently anything using electricity loses power due to resistance when travelling - partly why a CPU gets so hot for example. By having zero resistance, far less power is lost to resistance and heat which means more power efficiency
Thanks you so much for correcting me.
although my knowledge is extremely in this field, i my comment wasn’t a random speculation by me but stems from several discussions from Ycombinator threads i read so i don’t know what to think.

Electric resistance is not the primary cause of energy turnover in CMOS logic. See this comment in this same thread: https://sh.itjust.works/comment/1799661
