SUSTAINABLE ENERGY FROM FUSION OF NUCLEI

In the second half of this century the demand for energy is expected to double as a combined effect of population growth and per capita energy request in developing countries. In the same time scale, the net zero CO2 emission target imposes a radical reduction in the use of fossil fuels.

The solution to the energy problem can only come from a portfolio of sources that includes renewable energies, nuclear energy and improvements in energy efficiency.

In this scenario, fusion energy can play a special role:

  • the fuel is virtually unlimited and diffuse
  • there is no CO2 emission in the fusion reaction
  • the process is intrinsically safe
  • there is no production of long lived
  • radioisotopes that require a geological disposal.

Fusion is the physical mechanism that feeds the stars, thus our ambition is to reproduce it on Earth.
