To achieve this we apply the mimetic spectral element formulation presented in [56] to the solution of the Grad-Shafranov equation. This approach combines a finite volume discretization with the mixed finite element method. In this way the discrete differential operators ($\\nabla$, $\\nabla\\times$, $\\nabla\\cdot$) can be represented exactly and metric and all approximation errors are present in the constitutive relations.
