  Ageing of devices and components phasing-out, as well as the increasing maintenance costs, affect particle accelerators similarly to any industrial plant. A careful maintenance plan can cope with these problems in the medium-term, but then a complete update of the oldest parts is required. The most recent technologies available on the market together with a modular and open design approach are the basis of an upgrade program aimed at replacing the existing controllers of the Elettra storage ring magnet power supplies. The design considerations, the constraints and the first results are reported.

  The top-up operation established since 2010 at the Elettra third-generation synchrotron light source has solved the problems related to thermal drifts and beam current dependence, and a series of feedback loops acting on the machine optics and radio-frequency systems made easier to setup and operate the ring. Those systems together with the fast orbit feedback in operation since 2007, contributed to a very high electron beam orbit stability. A description of the active systems and their performance, future perspectives as well as some still open issues will be presented and discussed.
