Nuclear fusion combines light elements under extreme conditions to produce energy, primarily using Deuterium and Tritium. Global efforts focus on refining fusion through experimental reactors like EAST and WEST, while JET achieved significant energy output. Read about how future plants, notably ITER, aim to make fusion a practical power source, warranting investment and research as essential for success.
The Global Nuclear Economic Summit at Purdue University discussed advancements in nuclear power, emphasizing economic and supply chain challenges rather than technical limitations. AES Indiana announced plans for Small Modular Reactors to enhance energy production. Collaboration among universities, government, and industry will be vital to meet rising energy demands driven by AI and data centers.
