Governments and private developers worldwide are accelerating nuclear fusion research amid technical breakthroughs that could bring commercial-scale, clean energy closer to reality.

If successful, experts will have delivered a nearly limitless energy source without air pollution, long-lasting nuclear waste ...

The sun-mimicking technology known as nuclear fusion hopes to create “limitless” energy by smashing light nuclei together using immense heat, but containing such hot plasma is proving tricky. A ...

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 ...

ITER, a €20 billion nuclear fusion reactor under construction in France, will now not switch on until 2035 - a delay of 10 years. With smaller commercial fusion efforts on the rise, is it worth ...

Nuclear fusion, which operates on the same principle that powers the sun, is expected to become a sustainable energy source for the future. To achieve fusion power generation, it is essential to ...

What if the key to solving the world’s energy crisis was hidden in a process so ambitious, so technically demanding, that even experts once dismissed it as science fiction? For decades, nuclear fusion ...
