Germany launches its own fusion milestone program, implemented through performance-based government funding and “targeted leverage of private capital, and rigorous evaluation of technological and economic progress” (AI-generated image) #fusionenergy ans.org/news/2026-10-14/arti…
#ITER reports “substantial progress” in assembly and installation work. This is a boost to @iterorg's current goals of beginning research operation in 2034, achieving full magnetic energy in 2036, and starting DT operation in 2039 #fusionenergy ans.org/news/2026-09-09/arti…
Helion's shifts goalpost on fusion energy. "Full power won't come before 2029 or 2030," an executive acknowledged this summer. #fusionenergy axios.com/pro/climate-deals/…
Commonwealth Fusion Systems' CEO @BobMumgaard said their fusion reactor, SPARC, is now “about 80% complete.” Some experts argue that commercial fusion is “probably decades” away #fusionenergy @CFS_energy utilitydive.com/news/what-a-… via @UtilityDive

US start-up @_Pacific_Fusion aims to replicate the success of NIF, that achieved in 2022 ignition for the first time, generating more energy from fusion reactions than what hit the target #fusionenergy #innovation @lasers_llnl @jamesNESW @lechienkeith nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
Researchers in the US have proposed a new metric to determine the economic viability of future fusion power plants. It is crucial to demonstrate both the technology feasibility and the commercial interest of #fusionenergy @Mike_Banks @PhysicsWorld physicsworld.com/a/researche…

Not surprisingly, the public enjoys visiting this breathtaking fusion project: since 2013, ITER has welcomed more than 250,000 visitors in southern France, reflecting sustained international interest in its mission #fusionenergy
Commonwealth Fusion Systems is the first nuclear fusion company to have submitted an application to connect its ARC power plant to the grid (PJM Interconnection, the US largest wholesale electricity market) #fusionenergy @CFS_energy @DarrellProctor1 powermag.com/fusion-energy-g…

Members of @Europarl_EN visited #ITER last week. They were told that project's funding resulted in EUR 7.2 billion invested in the European supply chain between 2007 and 2025, with a projected 4,500 full-time jobs per year during 2025-2039 #fusionenergy bit.ly/4cvs5uq
Fusion power plants still need to prove their economic viability. Recent research suggests investors rely on overly optimistic models, that could lead to poor investment decisions. Alternative fusion power plant designs should be pursued #fusionenergy lnkd.in/dntA_vdf

US startup Helion achieved last week a key milestone in its quest for fusion power. Plasmas inside its prototype reactor have reached 150 million°C, 75% of what will be needed in a commercial fusion power plant techcrunch.com/2026/02/13/fu… via @techcrunch @tdechant #fusionenergy

Ten years ago to the day, on February 3, 2016, the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator, built by @PlasmaphysikIPP in Greifswald, produced its first hydrogen plasma in the presence of German Chancellor Angela Merkel. Take a virtual tour: lnkd.in/dBVbrapj #fusion #plasma
Black Moon Energy Corporation is planning a robotic mission to the Moon to investigate the potential of a Helium-3 production operation. Helium-3 is extremely rare on Earth but plentiful on the Moon, and is an ideal fusion energy fuel #fusionenergy blackmoon.energy/wp-content/…
