Could Fusion Meet The World's Growing Energy Needs?
The world's energy needs are growing rapidly, and as they do, it's becoming more unlikely that supply of renewables will match up to demand. Fusion promises to fill that gap.
As Robert Wolf explains, fusion power plants could provide an abundant and efficient energy alternative. Producing a gigawatt of electricity requires 10,000 tonnes of coal per day but just 1kg of fusion fuel 💡
Robert is Director of the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) in Greifswald, Germany – one of Europe’s largest fusion research centres. The IPP team are developing the physical basis for a power plant that will generate energy from the fusion of light atomic nuclei, just like the sun does.
