ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) project is one of the world’s most ambitious energy projects. The aim of the project is to build the largest tokamak ever designed to demonstrate that fusion – energy from the Sun and stars – can be used as a large-scale, non-CO2-emitting energy source to produce electricity.
The first plasma is scheduled for 2025.
9,000 blocks of about 500 kg each will fill the double wall of the vacuum chamber, limiting neutron radiation to the magnets and homogenizing the magnetic field lines.
This order follows a previous order of over 2,000 tonnes taken in 2011 with this same client, ITER INDIA.
This unprecedented project brings together 35 countries. Industeel has already registered more than 12,000 Tons for the project.
