The Croatian Employers’ Association (HUP) has reported that the Croatian companies will apply to be part of the 18 billion euro research facility in Cadarache, France which is funded and run by the European Union (EU), India, Japan, China, Russia, South Korea and the United States.
According to a press release on Sunday issued by HUP, a number of Croatian companies, including Končar, Elka, Fleksivod, BBR Adria, and MIV were briefed about the ITER project at a recent meeting, where they were given an insight into requirements they should meet in order to take part in the global project. The ITER project aims to make the long-awaited transition from experimental studies of plasma physics to full-scale electricity-producing fusion power plants.
