‘WORLD'S FIRST' GRID-SCALE NUCLEAR FUSION POWER PLANT ANNOUNCED IN THE US
Summary from the TLDR newsletter
Virginia may become the site of the world's first grid-scale nuclear fusion power plant - if all goes to plan. Commonwealth Fusion Systems is a startup that plans to make a multibillion-dollar investment into building the facility near Richmond. The plant will be able to produce enough energy to power 150,000 homes. The path forward for the project is unlikely to be smooth as the technology has not yet been proven viable.
