The IFMIF accelerator aims to provide an accelerator-based D-Li neutron source to produce high intensity high energy neutron flux for testing of candidate materials for use in fusion energy reactors. The first phase of the project, called EVEDA (Engineering Validation and Engineering Design Activities) aims at validating the technical options by constructing an accelerator prototype, called LIPAc (Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator) whose construction has begun. It is a full scale of one of the IFMIF accelerator from the injector to the first cryomodule. The cryomodule contains all the necessary equipment to transport and accelerate a 125 mA deuteron beam from an input energy of 5 MeV up to output energy of 9 MeV. It consists of a horizontal vacuum tank approximately 6 m long, 3 m high and 2.0 m wide, and includes 8 superconducting HWRs working at 175 MHz and at 4.45 K for beam acceleration. 8 Power Couplers provide RF power to the cavities up to 70 kW CW in the LIPAc case and 200 kW CW in the IFMIF case, with 8 Solenoid Packages acting as focusing elements. This paper gives an overview of the progress, achievements and status of the IFMIF SRF LINAC.
