Abstract The beam power of the Linac for the Second Target Station (STS) at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) will be doubled to 2.8 MW. For the energy upgrade seven additional cryomodules will be installed in the reserved space at the end of the linac tunnel to produce the linac output energy of 1.3 GeV. The cryomodules for STS will have some changes that do not require changes of overall layout based on the lessons learned from operational experience over the last 10 years and the high beta spare cryomodule developed in house. The average macro-pulse beam current for the STS will be 38 mA that is about 40 % increase from that for the present 1.4 MW operation. Plans for the existing cryomodules to support higher beam current for the STS is also presented in this paper.
