  1. EFDA Fusion RoadmapStatus of implementation Francesco Romanelli EFDA Leader

  2. Outline • Roadmap • Implementation • Resources

  3. ITER The key facility in the roadmap Background European Commission proposal for Horizon 2020 states the need of an ambitious yet realistic roadmap to fusion electricity by 2050.  Require DEMO construction in ~ 2030 • The present roadmap • Pragmatic approach to fusion energy. • Focus the effort of European laboratories around 8 Missions • Ensure innovation through early industrial involvement • Exploit the opportunities arising from international • collaborations

  4. The Roadmap in a nutshell JET • Plasma operation • Heat exhaust • Materials • Tritium breeding • Safety • DEMO • Low cost • Stellarator Inductive Steady state European Medium Size Tokamaks + International Collaborators JT60-SA Baseline strategy Advanced configuration and materials European Medium Size Tokamaks +linear plasma + Divertor Tokamak Test Facility + International Collaborators Tokamaks ITER Test blanket programme Parallel Blanket Concepts CFETR (CN) FNSF (US) Fusion electricity DEMO decision CDA +EDA Construction Operation Low capital cost and long term technologies Burning Plasma Stellarator Stellarator optimization 2010 2020 2030 2040 2050

  5. Work Packages Mission 1&2 Mission 3 • JET • Campaigns - Jan 2014 • ITER-like wall analysis – M. Rubel • DT technology – P. Batistoni • Diagnostics - PU • ITER Physics • Campaigns – Martin, Beurskens, Coda, Eich, Meyer • HW support -PU • Preparation of PFC for ITER&DEMO - Brezinsek • DTT definition - Reimerders • DTT design - Albanese • JT60 –SA - Giruzzi • Code development - Falchetto • Infrastructure support - PU • Stellarator (Campaign) - Dinklage • Stellarator optimisation - Castejon • Power Plant Physics & Technology • Materials - Rieth • Early Neutron Source • Breeding Blanket (Mission 4) - Boccaccini • Safety (Mission 5) - Taylor • Magnets - Zani • Containment structures • Balance of Plant - Cipollini • Divertor - You • Tritium and fuelling - Day • Heating and current drive - Tran • Diagnostics and control • Remote maintenance - Loving • Integration - PU • Socio Economics - vacant • Public Information - PU Mission 6&7 Mission 8

  6. Enabling Research, Training and Education • Enabling Research (7M€/y) • Selection by STAC on the basis of excellence of proposal • Training (7M€/y) • Fellowships (10 new trainee/y) • Goal Oriented Training (40 new trainee/y) • Education (9M€/y) • Support to the education of ~ 600 PhD students every year.

  7. Present status • Definition of Member participation • Call. Info on resources/relevant skills that each HoRU is ready to commit for the Consortium. Launched 22 October – 3 weeks deadline • Selection. PLsselect the contribution of each lab in close interaction with the interested RUs. Allocation of resources for each member to be approved in December 2013. Info needed for the submission of the grant proposal. • Definition of the detailed work. Defined during the preparation of the Project Management Plan (December 2013 – April 2014) by each PL in close interaction with the laboratories participating in the project.

  8. Budget and schedule • Original request was 758M€ for 2014-18 from EC. Available funds will be 734M€. This figure could increase if additional 3rd party contribution will become available. The budget will have to accommodate also 87.5% of JET Operation. • Present planning assumption is to operate JET until 2017 and wind-up in 2018, with a DT experiment in 2017. This could change if there will be a substantial participation in JET by 3rd parties. The conceptual design for a new set of RMP coils (collaboration with IPR, India) will be completed at the beginning of 2014 • Investment in new facilities (DTT and Early Neutron Source) are included in the budget starting in the second half of the 5 years period.

  9. Resources EC resources required in Horizon 2020 Agreed Note: this are average annual figures
