Abstract Since 2010 the SPES project has entered in the construction phase at Laboratori Nazionali di Legnaro (LNL) in Italy. The new high power cyclotron is being assembled and tested by BEST Theratronics company in Canada and the installation at LNL site is scheduled for fall 2014. Such machine is able to deliver two simultaneous proton beams in the energy range of 35-70 MeV and 250-500 uA of current and the facility has been designed in order to operate at the same time two different experimental areas. The three main uses of the high power beams are: production of radioactive beams by ISOL technique, production of radioisotopes for research purpose and high intensity neutron beams generation. The configuration of the facility and the further capabilities as multipurpose experimental laboratory will be presented.
