- How AI can help get fusion from lab to energy grid by the 2030s
AI is accelerating breakthroughs in fusion energy, helping tackle challenges in plasma physics and bringing zero-carbon power closer to commercial reality
- Is the world ready for the transformational power of fusion?
The first fusion power plant is due to begin its operations imminently, but what does the fusion-powered future mean for the energy sector and beyond?
- Top tech news: Nuclear fusion record set in South Korea | World . . .
A nuclear fusion reactor in South Korea has set a new record, superheating a plasma loop to 100 million degrees Celsius for 48 seconds The Korea Institute of Fusion Energy (KFE) announced in a statement that the Korea Superconducting Tomak Advanced Research (KSTAR) reactor had broken its previous record of 31 seconds, Euronews reports
- Nuclear fusion news: The science behind the energy technology | World . . .
Nuclear fusion, the process that powers the Sun and stars, merges two atomic nuclei into a larger one Both reactions release large amounts of energy, but with nuclear fusion, there is a high energy yield and low nuclear waste production Fusion occurs when two light atoms bond together, or fuse, to make a heavier one
- The nuclear fusion-heat pump nexus could solve our winter woes
Nuclear fusion could transform the world's energy system, our lives and our homes The latest breakthrough announced by the US Department of Energy gives new momentum
