If W7-X succeeds, it could turn the nuclear-fusion community on its head and launch stellarators into the limelight.

A stellarator is difficult to build, but could it be the best way to make fusion energy work?

Fusion startups are racing to prove that they can bottle the power of the stars without the sprawling magnets or precision particle beams that defined earlier generations of reactors. Instead of ...

We are on the cusp of putting fusion energy directly onto the grid. After decades of research and development, first-of-a-kind fusion systems are finally being proven. Fusion is expected to be a $1 ...

About 60 years ago, Russian physicist Lev Artsimovich said nuclear fusion “will be ready when society needs it”. The UK has achieved a “major breakthrough for fusion energy research”, the UK Atomic ...

The UK Atomic Energy Authority has begun using two additive manufacturing - or 3D printing - machines that use complementary methods to manufacture highly specialised components for fusion machines.

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) released a proposed rule establishing a regulatory framework for fusion machines under its existing byproduct materials framework at 10 CFR Part 30.

The proposal would add a fusion-specific pathway within the byproduct material framework (10 C.F.R. Part 30). The NRC describes the rule as “technology-inclusive.” The rule accommodates the wide ...

This webinar marks the official launch of the IAEA Fusion CONNECT platform: FUSE. The platform aims to facilitate awareness of fusion energy to the 180 IAEA member states. Topical modules are being ...
