The RF systems of the FCCee are expected to be the primary consumers of power and energy. Moreover, the staged approach, ranging from Z to TTbar, necessitates modifications in the RF production method involving klystrons and solid-state devices, posing challenges for the powering infrastructure.
This presentation will outline the RF powering requirements for each stage, including power...

The FCC RF areas will be a major challenge from a cooling and ventilation point of view, as these points contain the highest concentration of thermal loads in the entire FCC complex. The total thermal load will depend primarily on the efficiency of the klystrons (currently being upgraded) and of the cryogenic systems. The location of the cryogenic systems will also determine the number and...

With the advent of power electronics in recent years, DC networks have become an interesting solution for the distribution of electrical energy due to their advantages in terms of efficiency, controllability, volume reduction, and integration of energy storage. Considering the particularities of the FCC, DC networks could be used to supply power to specific machine parts.

The focus of this presentation is to address the challenge of evaluating the most effective powering solutions for the FCC-ee and FCC-hh. This involves selecting the optimal circuit configurations for the different magnet types, determining the best location for the power converters, and choosing the energy storage systems. To achieve this, we must consider various factors, such as the capital...
