It's fair to ask whether fusion energy will be economical/competitive. The progress we've made nailing the physics and engineering fundamentals is what makes that discussion about commercialization worthwhile.

How is ITER fusion reactor manufactured? Far more complex than it sounds. 🔧⚛️
Every Member procures components: Europe ~45.5%, China/India/Japan/Korea/Russia/US ~9.1% each. 90% arrives "in-kind" (real components, not money). Vacuum vessel: Europe+Korea. Solenoid: US+Japan. Magnets: 6 Members.
140+ agreements, 3,300+ contracts, factories on 3 continents.

Helion Energy Is Building A Fusion Power Plant. Can Its Technology Deliver?
Helion Just east of Malaga, Wash. a farm town in apple country the Columbia River runs between basalt bluffs past the Rock Island Dam, which has turned water into electricity for the Pacific Northwest since 1933. Now, on a flat stretch of land nearby, a very different kind of power project is taking shape. Helion Energy, one of the world’s best-funded private fusion companies, is building what it calls Orion: A machine it says will become the world’s first fusion power plant.....Continue […]
