Description

IFMIF-DONES is an ESFRI facility based on a 40 MeV, 5 MW beam power deuteron accelerator and a liquid lithium target currently under construction in Granada (Spain) as part of the European roadmap to fusion electricity. Its main goal is to characterize and qualify materials under a neutron field with an induced damage similar to the one expected in a fusion reactor, developing a material database for the future fusion nuclear power plants. Moreover, a number of medium neutron flux experiments in other irradiation areas for fusion and non-fusion applications have been proposed and are under analysis.
Although the construction phase is ramping up, the European EURATOM Project DONES-ConP1 has been directed at the preparation of the key documentation and to consolidate contributions from the parties. In this contribution, the main outcomes of the project, such as the first proposal of the DONES Experimental Programme, consolidation of the DONES users community, users and machine interfaces, the evolution of the ideas for the complementary experiments, organization and project documentation for safety licensing will be presented and described.

Funding Agency

This work has been carried out within the framework of the DONES-ConP1 Consortium, funded by the European Union via the Euratom R&T Programme 2023-2025 under Grant Agreement 101145952.
