The stakes of the “race to fusion” are dramatic. Commercial fusion has the potential to deliver nearly unlimited energy by replicating the physics that powers the sun.
The UKAEA has awarded contracts worth £8.1m to 14 organisations to develop shielding and fusion fuel technologies for future fusion power plants.
A 13-foot robot nicknamed Godzilla is being engineered to assemble components inside ITER, the massive fusion reactor taking shape in southern France. The machine exists because the interior of a ...
Helion Energy says it has reached plasma temperatures of 150 million degrees Celsius, a milestone that has reignited debate over whether private fusion companies can deliver on aggressive commercial ...
The discussion about nuclear fusion has long involved its potential to create limitless amounts of energy. Thea Energy is one of several companies working to turn that potential into reality.
Recent advancements in nuclear fusion research, particularly in the US and UK, have raised hopes for a clean energy future. China's substantial investments in fusion technology have positioned it as a ...
In late 2022, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory achieved a historic nuclear fusion breakthrough by creating a fusion reaction that produced more energy than the lasers used to create it.
Claims of “net energy gain” in fusion experiments often exclude the massive energy consumed by the full system, leading to misleading headlines. Even under optimistic timelines, commercial fusion ...
ORNL has partnered with Kyoto Fusioneering to develop UNITY-3, a fusion breeding blanket test facility advancing tritium fuel ...
