A 1-GWe-class magnetic fusion power plant conceptual design emphasizing advanced tokamak physics and advanced technologies is designated ARIES-AT. The point design and accessible operating space is described. Key trades and sensitivities are presented to illuminate the drivers of both direct cost and cost of electricity (COE).
