About 45 companies worldwide are in the race to develop commercially viable nuclear fusion technology and almost half of them expect to deliver power to the grid somewhere between 2031 and 2035.

Questions from energy reporters at a USEA briefing on emerging cleantech shifted the focus to what will happen to U.S. energy policy if Donald Trump is re-elected president.

Renewable resources generally are not dispatchable. Fusion is getting increasing attention as a possible salvation.

After decades of funding research to harness the power of nuclear fusion, the agency has announced grants to help start-ups develop commercial fusion reactors.

Researchers have developed a global first: less than one second of controlled hydrogen fusion that created more energy than had been required to initiate it.

Scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory have created a nuclear fusion reaction that for the first time produced a net energy gain.

The Atlantic Council, working with the U.S. Nuclear Industry Council, webcast an 8-hour live program featuring more than 30 speakers in a half-dozen panels.

Private investors poured an additional $500 million into a company that believes the fusion reactor it’s developing can achieve net electricity generation.
