MIT launches new lab to fast-track development of near-limitless energy machines: 'The start of a new era'
Near-limitless clean energy may be closer to reality than previously thought. According to MIT News, the Schmidt Laboratory for Materials in Nuclear Technologies will be operational and begin testing materials for various fusion power plant components in early 2026. Fusion occurs when two atomic nuclei are forced together to form a new, heavier nucleus. It releases a huge amount of clean energy without the planet-warming pollution created by the…
The company maintains that it can create energy through fusion, despite financial challenges.
The power plant will be built sometime early next decade in the US state of Virginia.
Massive Step Toward Nuclear Fusion Energy To Take Place In France
Shutterstock A common joke in the scientific community is that fusion power is about 10 years away, and has been for about 50+ years. If humans can figure out a way to make power via nuclear fusion, it would produce an essentially unlimited amount of clean energy. The problem, however, is that even though scientists know HOW nuclear fusion works, they can’t quite make it happen on the scale necessary to produce energy. This all may be changing…i…
The need for more electricity in the middle of the AI era forces the company to find new ways to meet its climate objectives The technology companies are among the most noted for their environmental impact and to address this situation, Google agreed to buy electricity from a next nuclear fusion plant, a measure that is committed to one of the most important clean energies for scientists. The technology company announced the agreement to buy hal…
