World’s First Grid-Scale Fusion Power Plant Coming to Virginia

Описание: Fusion is coming... to Chesterfield County, Virginia.

In an enormous development for Commonwealth Fusion Systems and for the commercialization of fusion energy, CFS has committed to build the world's first grid-scale fusion power plant, ARC, in Virginia. We evaluated more than 100 sites around the world before settling on this location, a good site with good infrastructure and a strong appetite for the firm supply of power we'll provide.

We'll independently finance, build, own, and operate this first-of-its-kind technology so we can start generating clean, carbon-free energy in the early 2030's. We'll also collaborate with Dominion Energy Virginia to help smooth ARC's path to the grid, benefitting from their development and technical expertise while helping the utility learn about fusion.

ARC will produce about 400 megawatts of electricity — enough to power 150,000 homes in the area or some of the largest commercial and industrial sites.
