EUROfusion Project

EUROfusion Project Details

UCY-CompSci is a signatory to the agreement of the European Consortium for the Development of Fusion Energy, EUROfusion.

As of January 1st 2014, UCY-CompSci has joinned the EUROfusion consortium (European Consortium for the Development of Fusion Energy) which manages European fusion research activities on behalf of Euratom.

EUROfusion, the European Consortium for the Development of Fusion Energy, manages European fusion research activities on behalf of Euratom.

The members of the EUROfusion consortium are 29 national fusion laboratories. EUROfusion funds all fusion research activities in accordance with the Roadmap to the realisation of fusion energy. The Roadmap outlines the most efficient way to realise fusion electricity. It is the result of an analysis of the European Fusion Programme undertaken by all Research Units within EUROfusion’s predecessor agreement, the European Fusion Development Agreement, EFDA.

Since the 1970s, when Europe’s fusion laboratories joined forces to build and operate the Joint European Torus, JET, they continuously developed their collaboration. To coordinate research activities beyond JET, the Associates formed the European Fusion Development Agreement, EFDA, in 1999. Since 2014 the EUROfusion consortium takes this development another step further.

EUROfusion receives funding from Euratom’s research and training programme 2014-2018 under grant agreement No 633053 and finances fusion research activities in accordance with the Roadmap to the realisation of fusion energy.

The living document outlines the most efficient way to realise fusion electricity and represents the result of an analysis of the European Fusion Programme undertaken by all Research Units within EUROfusion’s predecessor agreement, EFDA, the European Fusion Development Agreement.
