  1. The pursuit of fusion energy has taken significant steps forward. Our new blog explains recent technological and scientific advancements that bring fusion closer to practical, low‑waste clean power. Read more: wix.to/uPPZkgz




  2. Fun fact: Fusion energy is exotic and new (on Earth, anyway) but from a grid operator's perspective, fusion energy power plants will look a lot like today's existing power plants.

    When I first heard about this application, I thought, "OK, we're filling out some paperwork." It's a *lot* more than than. Engineering, planning, simulation work, etc.

  5. Just submitted my latest Swedish Science Council grant proposal: "Navigating the Incomparable"!

    We want to build correct-by-construction software for multi-objective optimization—helping safely navigate complex trade-offs like economic costs vs. global temperature rise (see the attached idealised Pareto front).

    To do this, we're proposing three connected work packages (see diagram) moving from formal specification, to state-space reduction, and finally scalable execution. We aim to combine #FunctionalProgramming, #DependentTypes, and dimensional analysis to build algebraically accountable tools for climate policy and fusion energy.

    If funded, this opens a new PhD position in 2027!

  21. How do we make ITER work? ⚡

    Fusion energy could reshape the global energy system — but delivering it requires extraordinary physics, engineering, and international collaboration. ITER sits at that intersection of ambition and precision.

    The scale of the challenge is matched by the opportunity. 🌍

    It demonstrates feasibility. The next phase moves toward DEMO plants delivering electricity to the grid ⚡

    Understanding “after ITER” means understanding the path to commercial fusion.

  25. 🔩 **美国的钨困境**

    半导体+军备+核聚变 = 钨需求爆炸,但美国80%依赖中国进口。

    关键数据:
    • 美国每年需进口约10,000吨钨(2025年基准)
    • 按保守估计,10年后需求可能暴涨至17,700吨(+77%)
    • 若核聚变技术成真,美国将需要与中国同等规模的钨产量

    钨的用途:
    🔸 60% → 切削/钻探工具(钨碳化物超硬)
    🔸 10% → 弹药(穿甲弹、铟)
    🔸 5% → 半导体(纳米级连接填充)
    🔸 新兴:光伏切割硅片 + 核聚变等离子体壁

    讽刺的是:美国本土其实遍地都是钨矿,但"储量"≠"能挖"——资本要的是经济可开采,地质存在没用。

    结论很赤裸:哪怕技术上不缺钨,产业政策不跟上,只能继续当中国的韭菜。
