In a first-of-its-kind agreement, Google will purchase electricity from a nuclear fusion power plant. But the technology ...

The reactor sustained a fusion experiment for 43 seconds, surpassing previous records. Nuclear fusion is seen as a potential solution for clean energy, emitting no greenhouse gases.

Environment Fusion power may never happen if we don't fix the lithium bottleneck Nuclear fusion power will probably require vast quantities of enriched lithium – but we aren’t making nearly ...

The fusion reaction — forcing two atoms to merge — is what creates the energy of the sun. It is the exact opposite of what the world knows now as “nuclear power” — a fission reaction ...

Rep. David Steffen, R-Howard, is one of the lawmakers who authored a package of three bills supporting nuclear development in Wisconsin and streamlining the process of locating a new fusion energy ...

Unlike traditional nuclear power plants that split isotopes of uranium apart to create heat, fusion reactions crush isotopes of hydrogen together at extreme temperatures to create heat. Scientists ...

Since then, private investment in U.S. fusion startups has soared to more than $8 billion, up from $1.2 billion in 2021, according to the Fusion Industry Association.

However, achieving nuclear fusion requires the creation of insanely high temperatures, similar to the heat at the center of the sun. For this reason, EAST’s recent breakthrough is a major one.
