⚛️ What is ITER actually trying to achieve?
It is not a power plant. It is a research machine, designed to demonstrate that fusion energy is feasible at scale: 500 megawatts of fusion power from 50 megawatts of input, a tenfold energy return, sustained and controlled for the first time ever.

Nuclear fusion: WEST beats the world record for plasma duration

The CEA’s WEST machine was able to maintain a plasma for more than 22 minutes. In doing so, it smashed the previous record for plasma duration achieved with a tokamak.
