Laser Fusion Milestone Reached: Net Energy Output Gain
U.S. scientists to report fusion energy ‘breakthrough’ in quest to develop a technology that provides unlimited, cheap, clean power
The Energy Department on Tuesday plans to announce that scientists have been able for the first time to produce a fusion reaction that creates a net energy gain, according to two people familiar with the research. It is still at least a decade — maybe decades — away from commercial use, but the latest development is likely to be touted by the Biden administration as an affirmation of a massive investment by the government.
