Nuclear fusion, the process that powers the Sun and stars, promises inexhaustible, emission-free power for the energy transition. Globally, both government labs and private-sector companies are racing to generate power from fusion, but despite growing momentum, progress has remained slow.
AI is accelerating breakthroughs in fusion energy, helping tackle challenges in plasma physics and bringing zero-carbon power closer to commercial reality.
How AI will help get fusion from lab to grid by the 2030s
Fusion is the future of the global energy sector and the first fusion power plant is due to begin operations imminently. The world’s first commercial fusion power plant should break ground in the next few years. The global race for commercial fusion is on while the fusion-powered future is just beginning.
Fusion energy is the process that powers the sun and now it can be created here on Earth. Fusion energy could revolutionise the way we produce food and drinking water and heat our homes. Fusion energy could also increase carbon sequestration and reduce carbon emissions.
