The LHC has a circumference of 26,7 km, with 20km filled with superconducting magnets operating at 8.3 T. The refrigeratorsproducing the liquid helium to cool the magnets consume 40 MW of power.
An equivalent machine with classicalelectromagnets would have a circumferenceof 100 km and would consume 1000 MW of power.
