AB - The future power upgrade and operation parameters of the Spallation Neutron Source at Oak Ridge National Laboratory are discussed. The installation of seven additional superconducting cavities in the existing free space of the linear accelerator will increase the beam energy to 1.3 GeV. More than 95% of the installed ring and transport systems are presently capable of 1.3 GeV operation. Combination of the new beam energy and increasing the average beam current by ~50% will double the accelerator power capability to 2.8 MW. The Mercury spallation neutron target will be upgraded to a capacity of 2.0 MW beam power.
