Description
As fusion moves from scientific validation toward commercial delivery, attention is shifting to the engineering and design foundations of deployable power plants. This session explores how developers can progress from first plasma to repeatable, nth-of-a-kind systems, with a focus on scalability, standardisation, and buildability.
- What design principles separate a fusion plant that can be replicated from one that cannot?
- How should developers navigate the trade-offs between technical performance and constructability?
- What engineering milestones need to be locked in before commercial deployment becomes credible?
