  1. Preparing the European fusion roadmap for FP8 and beyond

  2. Context : a difficult situation for the Accompanying programme • Decrease of funding for Associations through FP7 • Not compensated by F4E contracts (grants for 2010 = 10 MEuros) JET ILW Source : CCE-FU50 * : data not consolidated for 2011

  3. 150 Meuros : average early FP7 135 Meuros : subsistence level More difficult times to come ? ? ? • Source : CCE-FU50 • : data not consolidated for 2011 • 2012-2013 : still under discussion, based on Financial Perspectives only • Open letter from CCE-FU : • 135 MEuros to keep the accompanying programme alive • 120 MEuros as bare minimum for 2012-2013

  4. Existing basis : • Facility review (2008) • Hasinger report • Various assessments (JET, …) • CCE-FU51 : • HLWG for the workshop : C. Cesarsky, S. Cowley, S. Guenter, S. Paidassi, • A. Pizzuto, J. Sanchez, R. Weynants  detailed roadmap based on input from Associations • political paper : S. Paidassi, C. Cesarsky, P. Garderet, J. Sanchez, MQ Tran, • C. Varandas, B. Vierkorn Rudolph  document from Commission for FP8, •  Inputs for a strategic roadmap from the Commission for the fusion programme • Workshop as a first step to build a common global EU programme for FP8 (for the period up to 2020) A strong programme needed for FP8 • Several steps : • Input from Associations along the 4 objectives from the Hasinger report : • Objective 1 : ITER construction • Objective 2 : securing ITER operation • Objective 3 : preparing ITER generation • Objective 4 : fusion power plants • Technical analysis by EFDA STAC (with all the gratitude from HLWG …) • Workshop : what do we want to do? Common projects should emerge • Roadmap : draft for CCE-FU may 2, final version for CCE-FU Oct 5

  6. Day 1 : • Session 1: R&D needs • ITER R&D needs : priorities (R. Pitts remote for IO) • F4E needs for ITER construction (G. Federici for F4E) • DEMO R&D needs (MQ Tran) • Session 2 : Contribution from Associations Agenda • Day 2 : • Session 3 : Common programme • EFDA • Broader Approach • IFMIF • Industry • Session 4 : Summary of the Associations input by STAC • Objective 1 : ITER construction • Objective 3 : preparing ITER generation • Objective 2 : securing ITER operation • Objective 4 : fusion power plants Next steps : The way forward : next steps to build the roadmap General discussion Conclusion
