Fusion Energy

Could Humans Build a Star on Earth?

Fusion combines atoms to release the same energy that powers the stars, promising vast amounts of low-carbon electricity from tiny quantities of fuel. We enter the race between tokamaks, stellarators and laser fusion, where plasma must be controlled at extraordinary temperatures. The science is real, but the engineering remains difficult and expensive. Fusion may arrive late, yet its long-term potential is enormous.
