Abstract
Demonstration Power Plant (DEMO) will be a prototype fusion reactor designed to prove the capability to produce electrical power by fusion in a commercially acceptable way. Key element in the engineering development of such reactor is the definition of reliability and availability (RA) requirements (or targets) to drive the development and design processes. and the assurance approaches to. This paper defines a roadmap for the application of the RAMI approach and the first outline of RAMI guidelines for DEMO major systems. In setting up the functional elements of the RAMI approach, experience gained in existing fusion devices and in other significant fields of applications is considered.
