Fusion power is a potential method of electric power generation from heat released by nuclear fusion reactions. In fusion, two light atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus and release energy.

22 hours ago · In 2025, fusion research became more international. Perhaps most importantly, China entered the race for fusion with ambitious targets for nuclear power, which it intends to hit by 2030.

Nov 28, 2025 · Fusion may also potentially provide a combined source of energy in the form of heat and power for hydrogen production, industrial heat, carbon capture, and desalination. At the same time, …

2 days ago · Germany pivots to nuclear fusion, partnering with Focused Energy and RWE. Breakthroughs at Lawrence Livermore bring commercial fusion closer to reality.

Jun 1, 2023 · The fusion of two hydrogen atoms to make helium is the main process that powers the sun and other stars. When such light atomic nuclei combine, they release an immense amount of energy.

Apr 9, 2025 · Scientists are working to replicate fusion on Earth as a means to generate electricity for the power grid. Fusion energy would provide the benefit of a lasting power source that doesn't …

Apr 16, 2025 · This article explains what fusion energy is, its current state, and the pending obstacles that need to be overcome before we see fusion power plants connected to the grid.

Only several years ago, few could imagine a short-term path to widespread commercialization of fusion energy. Research was largely sustained by government funding, and the technology was widely …

Oct 2, 2025 · Fusion has the potential to solve the world's energy demand and climate goals, but questions remain about crossing the technology finish line and scaling up economically.

Dec 1, 2025 · While nuclear fission power plants require a certain degree of shielding around the core because of radiation produced by nuclear reactions, fusion power plants are more complex; they …
