WPTE strategy meetings for the 2026-2027 work programme, 19-20 January, 2026
by Hakola Antti Dec. 19, 2025

Dec. 19, 2025

Dear RTCs for the WPTE topics in 2026-2027! The GPM is behind us and it is therefore a high time to start drafting the strategy of your RT for the period 2026-2027. As usual, this will be done together with your reference TFLs and the outcomes of the exercise will be presented in the strategy meeting in mid-January 2026. I'm compling the agenda for the meeting, which is tentatively considered to consist of two sessions: on Monday 19 January (afternoon) and Tuesday 20 January (morning). Could you, please, let me know of your availability on either of the two days - preferably by 08 December. Many thanks in advance, Antti Antti Hakola Principal Scientist, VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland Ltd. Deputy Task Force Leader of EUROfusion WPTE For the WPTE Task Force Leader Team Emmanuelle Tsitrone Nicola Vianello Matteo Baruzzo Jeronimo Garcia Antti Hakola Valentin Igochine David Keeling Benoit Labit
