Moonshots and sure shots: Why fusion needs enterprises and start-ups (Spanish Edition)
Creators
Description
The basic premise of private fusion development is that there are many paths to commercialization, and entrepreneurs can complement government programmes. We only have to look to the space launch industry to illustrate that point. A combination of clever public–private partnership programmes run by the US Government has led to cost savings across the board in space launch. SpaceX, Blue Origin and others have shown how this can be done. Private 'fusioneers' think similarly, and ask: how can we make things less expensive? How can we use the latest innovations in materials, technology and artificial intelligence to reach viability? How can we reduce total capital costs and cost of electricity so that fusion systems can compete with combined cycle natural gas?
