We consider an energy functional on measures in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ arising in superconductivity as a limit case of the well-known Ginzburg Landau functionals. We study its gradient flow with respect to the Wasserstein metric of probability measures, whose corresponding time evolutive problem can be seen as a mean field model for the evolution of vortex densities. Improving the analysis made in [AS], we obtain a new existence and uniqueness result for the evolution problem.
