U.S. to join international fusion project negotiations. (News).(Brief Article)
PRINCETON, NJ -- The U.S. will join negotiations for the construction and operation of a major international magnetic fusion research project, U.S. Secretary of Energy Spencer Abraham announced January 30.
Known as the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), the project's mission is to demonstrate the scientific and technological feasibility of fusion energy.
A fusion power plant would produce no greenhouse gasses, use abundant sources of fuel, shut down easily, require no fissionable materials, operate in a continuous mode to meet demand, and produce manageable radioactive waste.
ITER will provide 500 megawatts of fusion power for 500 seconds or longer during each individual fusion experiment. It will be the ...
