High energy accelerators are usually great energy consumers and could not escape from being
concerned by energy efficiency aspects. After recalling the context, major actions towards
energy efficiency will be presented, with plans for the future.

Magnet energy recovery on a cycle-by-cycle basis shows potential for great energy savings and
improvement of the grid power quality. Reducing the magnet duty cycle allows more compact
mechanical layout and greater efficiency. To achieve such a benefit a system integration study
is essential before starting the parallel development of magnets and power conversion/energy
recovery systems.
