Dr Alan Costley, Tokamak Energy
“Faster Fusion: Fact or Fantasy?”
The need for carbon-free sources of energy is well established and fusion power is one possible solution. But experimental fusion devices are large and expensive. In consequence, fusion is taking decades to develop. Recent advances are opening development paths based on much smaller devices, which will be cheaper and faster to build. But are they feasible and will they work? In this talk we explore the answers.
