The S-band linac of FERMI, the seeded Free Electron Laser (FEL) located at the Elettra laboratory in Trieste, has reached the peak on-crest electron energy of 1.55 GeV required for FEL-2 with the present layout. Different ways are being considered to extend the operating energy of the S-band linac up to 1.8 GeV. At the same time upgrades on the existing systems are investigated to address the requirements of operability of a users facility. This paper provides an overview of the developments that are under consideration and discusses the requirements and constraints for their implementation.
