The PEPR Suprafusion (Priority Equipment Program for Exploratory Research), proposed by CEA and CNRS, is the winner of the third wave of calls for projects under the France 2030 plan.

The €50 million funding will enable the development of high-temperature superconductors to meet tomorrow’s energy and societal challenges, particularly with applications in the field of fusion.

The project launch took place on March 31 at Centrale Supélec (Paris-Saclay), in the presence of the CEO of CNRS, the General Administrator of CEA and the 4 project co-sponsors, including Pascal Tixador, MagSup team.

The “applied superconductivity” section of the MagSup team at the laboratory is heavily involved in this project.
