Nuclear fusion power will probably require vast quantities of enriched lithium – but we aren’t making nearly enough, and ...

Germany's Wendelstein 7-X stellarator has set a new benchmark for fusion reactors, bringing commercial, near-limitless clean ...

On May 22, the latest experimental campaign concluded at the world's most powerful nuclear fusion device of the stellarator ...

Fusion is the process that powers the sun and the stars. It's the opposite of nuclear fission, the process used in today's nuclear power plants, which splits atoms apart. U.S. Department of Energy ...

Still, there are science and engineering obstacles ahead. The quest for nuclear fusion power — marked by competing approaches, cost overruns, delays and hype — to power homes, offices and ...

How could nuclear fusion power eventually turn the lights on in your house? There are two main ways to generate nuclear fusion, but both have the same result. Fusing two atoms creates a tremendous ...

announced plans on Tuesday to build the world's first grid-scale commercial nuclear fusion power plant in Chesterfield County, Virginia. The ARC, (Affordable, Robust, Compact) fusion reactor plant ...

While the U.S. and U.K. have made significant strides in nuclear fusion, it is an Asian power that is expected to move ahead of the competition in the coming years. In China, the government is ...

And a combined source of heat and power for clean industrial processing, making hydrogen, desalinating water, and things we can't even imagine today." Stock image of an atom. Nuclear fusion energy ...

Nuclear fusion holds the promise of clean, cheap, abundant, reliable energy. With no carbon emissions and no obvious physical limitations on their location, dependable fusion power plants could ...

Fusion is a process that merges atoms together, and releases more energy than fission (which splits atoms apart). Fission is used by today's nuclear power plants and creates hazardous nuclear ...

Nuclear fusion does not carry the same safety risks, and the materials used to power it have a much shorter half-life than fission. How could nuclear fusion power eventually turn the lights on in ...
