Rumour has it that they did it and can do it on a commercial-scale.

Fusion?
- Thread starter petros
- Start date
When? How many months or years or decades out is the first practical application?
Will it fit into the Green Pipe-Dream in our lifetimes or is this still something our grandchildren might benefit from eventually someday?

Actually, that’s faster than I thought, so can it replace fossil fuels by 2035 when all Canadian private vehicles as suppose to be fully electric then?
Is Nuclear and Fusion on Greta's naughty list?....Better check with her first.
It's very exciting as a first step. They've always been able to create fusion but it took more energy to make it work than it produced and was unstable. They CLAIM this produces more than it takes and is stable - which will open the door to more research and eventually fusion energy that actually works on a large commercial scale.
IF it isn't it will be - the last thing those types want is for the problem to be solved. She'd have to go back to NOT screaming at people like a mindless idiot again, and she won't like that.
It'll be used the way SMRs are set to when fruition hits as subgrid infills bypassing use of long distance distribution.
Now to implement the Tesla wireless electricity grid and eliminate those dirty batteries
Well it was a little overhyped as expected - looks like we're still a long long way off to having something useable. Still - baby steps.

U.S. Scientists Confirm Major Breakthrough In Nuclear Fusion Energy
Researchers just got closer than anyone has before to replicating the reaction that fuels the sun — but you might not want to get overly excited just yet.
What do you mean? This is yet another reason to end fossil fuels...because there's a potential replacement that will be available in 60 years. Once we reach Agenda 2030, we will only have 50 or so years of suffering ...then utopia....maybe.
So what is the byproduct of fusion? Will there be more toxins we have no way of disposing of, like nuke plants?
Helium i believe. So... we could face the horrifying future of everyone walking around talking in absurdly high pitched voices i guess....
Helium and neutrons. How many neutrons depends on what the fuel is, deuterium or tritium, and electromagnetic energy (heat and light). In the traditional model, energy is extracted from the electromagnetic energy and from a screening substance (usually water), that is used to absorb the free neutrons. That absorption produces heat.
Days or decades. Someplace between next month and next century. Breakthroughs'll shorten the process, if they happen. Otherwise, closer to a century.
