"Fusion, Energy for the Future", download PDF (200 Kb)

Fusion is one of the options for a future sustainable and large-scale energy supply. Here the basic aspects of fusion energy are presented within the wider frame of worldwide energy issues. Particular reference is made to the European fusion programme which is managed by the Commission. Current R&D activities focus on the EU contribution to the preparation for ITER, and the developments needed for a future fusion power station are discussed.

"ITER, the Way to Fusion Power", download PDF (100 Kb)

The brochure describes the international project ITER, the next generation fusion experiment paving the way towards the realisation of fusion power. The technical and programmatic objectives of the device are discussed, as are the international negotiations underpinning its realisation and the leading position of the European contribution to the project.

"Fusion Energy Research", download PDF (140 Kb)

This brochure covers general aspects of fusion energy research in the European Union focusing in particular on the objectives of the Sixth Framework Programme and the implementation of the European Research Area. The important contribution of European researchers to major international projects is also discussed.

"European Fusion Research Area" or download PDF (1.6 Mb)

Europe’s future energy systems must provide a sustainable, secure and environmentally acceptableenergy supply. Energy research within the 6th Framework Programme is addressing a range of tech-nologies with potential payoffs on varying timescales. Fusion energy research has perhaps thelongest time horizon of the candidate technologies for future energy supply, but is nevertheless oneof the most important options available to the EU and to mankind. Fusion has the potential to con-tribute to securing the long term energy supply needed by society. It is, moreover, a safe energysource with abundant fuel and fusion power plants can be designed to be environmentally benign.
