Workshop on
Pulsed Power Technology and Applications

February 10th and 11th, 2025
Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics, Garching, Germany


Hosted by the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics, the 2025 annual workshop of the ISP is about pulsed power technology and its applications. The topic is intentionally kept very open and is open for all possible applications around the topic of pulsed power.

This workshop is intended to regularly provide the possibility of networking within the pulsed power community and to support the scientific / technical exchange between science, industry and students. The frame of the workshop shall provide a more intimate opportunity for social and technical interaction than a large conference. The organizational and, thus, the cost are kept at a minimum. The workshop is accompanied by a visit of the ASDEX Upgrade divertor tokamak and the annual member meeting of the ISP.

The overall goal of the ASDEX Upgrade Programme is to establish the scientific basis for the optimisation of the tokamak approach to fusion energy and especially to prepare the next steps: ITER and DEMO. The topics Fusion and Pulsed Power are close to each other and have many overlaps. Therefore, it is a great pleasure and honor for the ISP that the Max Planck Institute of Plasma Physics has offered to host this workshop and the member meeting.

Further Information about costs, Hotels and dinner locations will follow asap.
