Commonwealth Fusion makes the physics case for its 400 MW reactor

The scientific community has a plan for achieving fusion power. It involves getting a better understanding of how to control fusion in a tokamak-style reactor using the currently under construction ITER reactor, and then using that knowledge to build DEMO-style plants. But ITER isn't even expected to see hot plasmas until the middle of the 2030s, by which point solar panels will be so cheap that we'll probably all be getting them free in our cereal boxes.

AI boom: Demand for data centers drives innovation by energy, tech industries to produce new power sources

Energy experts acknowledge the need for additional power sources, and they’re turning to new technology and infrastructure to address the demand. "As an industry, we are investing approximately $1.1 trillion in our infrastructure over the next five years to ensure that we're meeting that need and that demand," Exelon CEO Calvin Butler said. In 2024, data centers consumed about 1.5% of global electricity use and the demand has continued to surge.

A Framework for Evaluating the Siting of Fusion Power: Case Study on the Retired Coal Sites in the United States

Announce Type: new Abstract: As fusion advances toward commercialization, systematic siting approaches are needed to identify locations that meet technical, economic, and infrastructural requirements, while also ensuring public acceptance and avoiding the socio-political challenges that have historically hindered fission deployment. Therefore, this study introduces a comprehensive, first-of-its-kind fusion siting framework and applies it to 85 retired (2020-2025) U.S. coal power sites as a...
