Description
A panel of senior figures from the world’s leading public & private, fusion-focused entities discuss & define the path to commercialisation:
- How close are the leading technologies to achieving private-sector break-even, & what effect will that have on investment in the sector?
- How are partnerships between the private & public sector, & between Japanese & international entities, accelerating movement towards commercialisation?
- How can the use of industrialized fusion tech for non-power applications, de-risk the path to commercial fusion-power generation?
- What needs to be done to integrate fusion energy machines into power systems and onto the grid?
