The reported research focuses on the prospective utilization of a fusion-fission hybrid system (FFHS) as a powerful neutron source capable of transmuting minor actinides (MAs; Np, Am, Cm) from spent nuclear fuel (SNF). Calculations simulating nuclide kinetics in MA-bearing metal fuel were performed for three 40-MW fusion power FFHS reactors, intended for different purposes (demonstration, pilot-industrial, and industrial). In addition, the research assessed potential requirements for FFHSs and their role in Russia's nuclear power program. A model created by AO «Proryv» was used to analyze the development of the Russian nuclear power system with integrated FFHSs. MA quantities expected to be produced and transmuted in the integration scenario were estimated. The results suggest that just one hybrid facility's capacity would be enough to achieve a ~28% MA decrease in the Russian power system by 2130.
