Nuclear fusion, which operates on the same principle that powers the sun, is expected to become a sustainable energy source for the future. To achieve fusion power generation, it is essential to ...

China's Burning Plasma Experimental Superconducting Tokamak fusion facility (BEST) has entered a new construction phase as it speeds toward its 2027 target completion date. The state-run nuclear ...

Inside a French fusion experiment, a metal more associated with lightbulb filaments than star power just did something extraordinary. Tungsten, long considered too brittle and temperamental for the ...

Researchers at the University of British Columbia have shown that a small bench-top reactor can enhance nuclear fusion rates by electrochemically loading a metal with deuterium fuel. Unlike massive ...

There’s only one fusion device on earth that has been able to meet a key scientific threshold, but Maritime Fusion CEO Justin Cohen is already preparing to put a fusion reactor on a boat. Stay with me ...

Workers wear protective equipment in a cavernous hall that contains industrial equipment. The tokamak hall at Commonwealth Fusion Systems’ fusion energy facility in Devens, Massachusetts, will house ...

China's EAST nuclear fusion reactor has successfully kept plasma stable at extreme densities, passing a major fusion milestone and potentially bringing humanity closer to wielding near-limitless clean ...

The industry is getting billions, but it’s way too early to count on fusion to meet growing electricity demand. This week, Commonwealth Fusion Systems announced it has another customer for its first ...
