Reliable atomic data for electron impact ionisation of atoms are of crucial importance for the modelling of ionised-matter environments and other plasma related applications. To achieve a greater range of accessible electron energies and densities a new electron gun [1,2,3] that delivers a ribbon-shaped beam has been integrated into the experimental crossed-beams setup in Giessen. This gun is designed for electron energies from 10 to 3500 eV with high electron currents at all energies. Ten different electrodes provide a high degree of flexibility for choosing a number of operation modes. Here, we present the latest developments and the commissioning status of the high-power electron gun. In particular, we focus on the challenges associated with fast energy scan measurements.
