  On the way to the fusion demonstrator (DEMO), ITER is designed to tackle the physics properties of thermonuclear plasmas in relevant conditions, as well as the key technologies. But because of its experimental character, the amount of neutrons produced by ITER all along its life will be about two orders of magnitude below what is expected in a fusion Power Plant. A dedicated facility, called IFMIF (International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility), is thus mandatory to study and analyse the behaviour of materials under a high flux of energetic neutrons (14 MeV). The Engineering Validation and Engineering Design Activities (EVEDA), launched in the framework of a bilateral agreement between Euratom and the Government of Japan in 2007, with a duration of 6 years, aims at producing the detailed design file enabling the construction of IFMIF. The key systems will be also tested during this phase. One of the most important one is the accelerator, bringing a deuteron beam of 125 mA to an output energy of 40 MeV. The whole facility will be described, including the detail of the accelerator, as well as the organisational framework of the project.
