At the PRIMA neutral beam test facility in Padua, Italy, the components of ITER's most powerful heating system—neutral beam injection—will be tested in advance of ITER operation.

Europe, Japan and India are contributing all components according to the specifications of Procurement Arrangements signed with the ITER Organization; Italy has built the facility as a voluntary contribution to the neutral beam development program.

Since late 2014, components have been arriving on site for installation at the SPIDER test bed, a 1:1-scale ion source that will be used to develop the technology for the production of negative ions. Deliveries have included a beam dump supplied by India, a high-voltage deck supplied by Europe, and power supply components from Japan.

On 1 March, a flag-off ceremony was held at ITER India premises in Gandhinagar, as the latest shipment of in-kind components procured by India left for PRIMA. Nine trucks containing components for SPIDER's 100 kV power supply—transformers, switching modules, controllers, high-voltage racks, cables disconnector switches—are now en route to the port of Mundra, on India's west coast, for shipment to Italy.
