Abstract

In the frame of the Next Generation Europe program, the EU program to boost after-COVID recovery, the Italian Minister of University and Research has funded a project called Innovative Research Infrastructure for applied Superconductivity (IRIS). New laboratories will be built or upgraded in six poles: Milan (hub of the infrastructure), Genoa, Frascati, Naples, Salerno, and Lecce, to carry out basic research on magnetism and superconducting materials, test of wires, tapes, and large current cables, superconducting magnets construction with advanced instrumentation, power tests of magnets, and a special facility for high current-high voltage superconducting lines. The program will be executed over three years and then will operate for at least 10 years. It includes two first demonstrators: one HTS magnet to be operated at 10-20 K and a superconducting line of 1 GW (40 kA-25 kV) about 140 m long. The demonstrators anticipate the main scope of the investment in the IRIS infrastructure: to support the use of superconductivity for improving sustainability by decreasing the energy consumption without compromising performance.
