After two years of intense planning, hard work and delivery JET Decommissioning and Repurposing (JDR) has successfully reached its first major building milestone. The clearance of the former JET building enables UKAEA to proceed with developing the host building for LIBRTI, one of global fusion’s most significant research and development programmes.
The building which the work took place within, was crucial to JET’s many years of operations, channelling 80,000 amps of power to the tokamak.
The building will now undergo a comprehensive
refurbishment for LIBRTI, including recladding, a roof lift and floor reinforcement, before the experimental equipment and supporting systems are installed.
