One of the high-level missions of the European Roadmap to the realisation of fusion energy is to bring the HELIAS stellarator line to maturity. The near-term focus is the scientific exploitation of the Wendelstein 7-X experiment in order to assess stellarator optimization in view of economic operation of a stellarator fusion power plant. W7-X will play a decisive role for these studies but may...
