  The SwissFEL hard X-ray FEL is presently under construction at PSI. The injector section including the first bunch compressor stage was extensively tested in a dedicated facility with excellent beam performance results. The 6 GeV driver linac is based on normal conducting C-band technology. The modular linac building block, including the RF source, has been developed by PSI in collaboration with industry. The linac module design provides optimum overall system economy and very good beam dynamic properties. High power tests of all linac module components as well as system tests have been performed successfully. The start of commissioning for the whole facility is scheduled for 2016.
