Abstract
Work has been undertaken for a period of about 2-1/2 years at Fermilab on feasibility studies for the Energy Doubler/Saver. This activity has centered on the technology of building Energy Doubler/Saver magnets and their cooling system. Energy Doubling would be accomplished by installing in the 4-mile tunnel of the Fermilab accelerator a ring of superconducting magnets. Energy Saving would use the same ring of superconducting magnets operating in a power saving mode. The motivation for the saver would be to obtain the same energy, intensity and duty cycle of the present machine but with a significantly reduced electrical power bill.
