Design concepts for heavy-ion drivers with lower costs are presented which are adapted to the needs of ICF development in the next decade, rather than power plants. Four 5-MJ drivers are compared, whose repetition rates range from 0.5 Hz to 20 Hz. Three use synchrotrons, and their costs are estimated to be competitive with any other existing driver technology.
