A method of energizing or de-energizing a high temperature superconducting, HTS, coil, from an initial transport current to a final transport current. The HTS coil comprises a plurality of turns of HTS material. A transport current is supplied to the HTS coil, the transport current starting at the initial transport current and varying over time to the final transport current. Cooling is applied to the HTS coil. An operating condition of the HTS coil is monitored, wherein the operating condition is indicative of a ratio I/Ic of the transport current, I, to a critical current, Ic, of the HTS material in at least a part of the HTS coil. One or both of the transport current applied to the coil and a net cooling applied to the coil are controlled in a feedback loop responsive to the operating condition, in order to maintain the operating condition in a desired range during energisation or de-energisation, such that the indicated ratio I/Ic is maintained above a threshold ratio (e.g. 0.7).
