Rosatom State Corporation announced the start of work in France on the ITER reactor to install gyrotrons — systems for additional plasma heating and electric current generation. Equipment for the thermonuclear mega-installation was sent to the ITER site back in August, but engineers from NPP Gycom arrived from Nizhny Novgorod only recently.
We are recognized worldwide as leaders in the production of gyrotrons, which is why the installation of equipment is entrusted to our professionals who thoroughly master this technology.
It is known that at this stage of ITER construction, 24 gyrotrons must be installed. Two of them will be provided by India, six by the European Union countries, and eight gyrotrons each by Russia and Japan. For the time being, only Russian and Japanese parts for the construction of gyrotrons have arrived in France.
The "First Technical" previously described in detail the ITER project and how it is useful for Russia. You can read about it here.
