Nuclear-fusion breakthrough: this physicist helped to achieve the first-ever energy gain Annie Kritcher and her team at the US National Ignition Facility designed fusion experiments that generated more energy than they consumed. By Jeff Tollefson...
Home Articles Energy Nuclear Nuclear Fusion? Not so Fast May 5, 2023 By Goehring & Rozencwajg On December 13th, 2022, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced a nuclear fusion breakthrough. For the first time in history, scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory achieved...
This nuclear fusion reaction forms helium nuclei and neutrons in the process. In theory, relatively clean power can be harnessed by – for instance – converting the neutrons' energy into heat to drive a steam turbine and generate electricity. It's not too different from the mechanics of a th...

Nuclear fusion has been considered the holy grail of energy creation that some say could save humans from extinction.
China made a breakthrough in controllable nuclear fusion technology on Saturday. Huanliu-3, the country's new-generation "artificial sun," realized high-confinement mode operation with a plasma current of 1 million amperes for the first time, according to the China National Nuclear Corporation (CN...
Fusion's promise is vast and there is exciting work being done to advance it outside of this recent breakthrough, including byprivate companies. Decades of research and development are needed before fusion can meaningfully contribute to our energy system. Our central message is a call to action:...
