Abstract Beam injection energy of the RCS in J-PARC was increased from 181 MeV to 400 MeV, and user operation with beam energy of 300 kW for both the MLF and the MR was performed with high availability from February to Jun in 2014. Beam losses during beam injection period was decreased by reduction of space charge effect due to increase of beam injection energy. Since an ion source and an RFQ of the LINAC are replaced to realize 1 MW beam power at the RCS in summer maintenance period, injection beam peak current was increased from 30 mA to 50 mA. User operation was restarted from November with beam power of 300 kW. The beam power for user operation will be gradually increased after getting radiation safety permission from government. High intensity beam study was also performed and it was successfully to accelerate beam of 770 kW equivalent without beam loss except foil scattering loss. In this beam study it was cleared issues to realize 1MW operation in the RCS. Status of user operation and issues to realize high power operation in the RCS are presented.
