Fusion uses the opposite process: It merges two light elements into a heavier one. This approach can theoretically produce significantly more power than fission. In practice, however ...

This significant investment will enable Helion to expedite the development of its commercial-scale fusion power plant. “We will be radically scaling up our manufacturing in the U.S. – enabling ...

Fusion is desirable because it is an essentially limitless source of carbon-free power waiting to be unlocked. “We’re really excited for what we’re building,” said Helion CEO and co ...

But a whole host of engineering challenges must be addressed before fusion can be scaled up to become a safe, affordable source of virtually unlimited clean power. In other words, it’s ...

The world’s first grid-scale commercial fusion power plant will be built at the James River Industrial Park in Chesterfield County, Virginia. That’s according to a Dec. 17 announcement from ...

Even once researchers can reliably get more power out of a fusion reaction than they put in, they'll still need to overcome engineering challenges to scale up fusion energy. The experiment ...
