Fusion Energy Sciences program

The Fusion Energy Sciences program focuses on researching and developing nuclear fusion, the process that powers the sun and stars. Fusion combines light atomic nuclei, like hydrogen, to produce energy, offering a potential source of abundant, clean, and safe power. This program supports scientific studies and advanced experiments to understand plasma behavior and improve fusion reactor technologies. Its goal is to make fusion a practical and sustainable energy source for the future, helping to address global energy needs and reduce environmental impact.
