The first conductors produced for ITER's toroidal field coils were transported by truck and then boat in March 2010 between the manufacturer, Nippon Steel in Kyushu, Japan and Toshiba in Yokohama where trial winding will be performed.
Work will begin this year on excavation for the Tokamak Complex and construction of the first buildings. The ITER platform is ready; perfectly flat, it measures 400 x 1000 metres. Credit AIF VDC.
