The promise of fusion energy is now tantalizingly close.
That is according to Nathan Gilliland, CEO of General Fusion. This means there is about about 5 years to go to reach proof of concept. He says the advances in fusion production are consistent with “Moore’s Law,” a doubling of capabilities every 18 months, which means the sector is getting close. But he says, “The biggest challenge is having the capacity to create enough energy to ignite even more energy.”
When that happens, Gilliland says the benefits will include lower-cost power, a reduction in carbon emissions and an inexhaustible source of energy. In other words, we will have harnessed the power of the sun.
