Inertial Fusion Energy
Fusion has the potential to provide a reliable, abundant, safe, and clean energy source. Repeated achievement of fusion ignition at the National Ignition Facility (NIF) as part of the U.S. Department of Energy/National Nuclear Security Administration''s Stockpile Stewardship Program has also established the fundamental scientific feasibility of laser
Advanced latent heat of fusion thermal energy storage for solar
The use of solar thermal power systems coupled with thermal energy storage (TES) is being studied for both terrestrial and space applications. In the case of terrestrial applications, it was found that one or two hours of TES could shift the insolation peak (solar noon) to coincide with user peak loads. The use of a phase change material (PCM) is
Engineers use AI to wrangle fusion power for the grid
By Colton Poore, Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment February 21, 2024 In the blink of an eye, the unruly, superheated plasma that drives a fusion reaction can lose its stability and escape the strong magnetic fields confining it within the donut-shaped fusion reactor.
