Engineers at the ITER nuclear fusion facility in southern France have placed the final ...

The promise of nuclear fusion feels simple. Just as stars fuse hydrogen into heavier elements to produce energy, a fusion reactor generates massive amounts of energy by combining lightweight particles ...

Advanced energy technology firm AMPERA has finished production on its initial full-scale, 3D-printed nuclear ...

In the next few decades, many physicists are hopeful that nuclear fusion could become a realistic source of practically limitless energy. But before this can happen, it will be critical to ensure that ...

A decades-old scientific controversy and a small bench-top apparatus at the University of British Columbia (UBC) could be the key to more efficient fusion reactors by increasing the chances of a ...

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 ...

Reactors designed to produce energy from the fusion of atoms could have an unexpected scientific side benefit. An international team of researchers has shown that low-mass dark-sector particles, such ...

Nuclear fusion may be closer to commercialization than previously thought, with private firms targeting operational reactors in the early 2030s. Major technical and economic hurdles remain, including ...

Good news for fusion fans: A phenomenon that might have hindered efforts to generate energy using nuclear fusion may actually be beneficial. In computer simulations of two planned fusion reactors, ...

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 ...
