SPARC fusion reactor positioned to demonstrate power breakeven
Original: SPARC positioned to demonstrate fusion power breakeven
Reports say SPARC, the compact tokamak being developed by Commonwealth Fusion Systems with MIT in Massachusetts, is positioned to demonstrate fusion power breakeven, the point at which a fusion device produces more energy than is needed to sustain the reaction. The claim is drawing attention from the physics and energy communities, as breakeven would be a major milestone on the path to practical fusion power.
Why now: Interest in the progress of fusion energy as SPARC nears a potential breakeven milestone
