Taking advantage of its extensive technical expertise developed as a general manufacturer of electrical equipment including electrical machinery, superconducting and very-low-temperature equipment, and system technologies, Hitachi continuously works on the research and development of experimental fusion equipment and accelerators for fundamental scientific research, which require cutting-edge technologies. In the fusion area, Hitachi has collaborated on design review and research and development work for both the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor and the Japan Atomic Energy Agency's next-generation JT-60SA facility, and has worked on remodeling the National Institute for Fusion Science's Large Helical Device to improve its performance. In the field of accelerator equipment, Hitachi delivered sector magnets for RIKEN's SRC and approximately 400 large magnets of various types for the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex run jointly by the JAEA and High Energy Accelerator Research Organization.
