Fusion Sparks an Energy Revolution
After hitting a power-output milestone, fusion technology is ready to graduate from small-scale lab experiment to full-sized power plant.
In 2022, researchers at the National Ignition Facility (NIF) in California became the first to demonstrate experimentally that a fusion process could indeed produce a net energy gain. Currently, the US and the UK are leading the race: The US Department of Energy funds fusion research with an annual budget of about$1.4 billion and encourages private enterprises to accelerate commercialization. With these advances and commitments in place, 2024 is set to show that fusion is no longer a distant dream but an achievable future of clean and sustainable energy.
