There is a big challenge to try to create new oils that have good dielectric properties, good heat conductivity properties, resistance to performance degradation/reactivity with metals or other transformer components, fire safety properties, less hazardous to humans/ and environment if spilled. Meeting any few of these properties is easy, meeting them all is a Herculean task.
