fusion research institutions

Fusion research institutions focus on understanding and developing nuclear fusion, the process that powers the sun and stars. Instead of splitting atoms (like in nuclear fission), fusion combines light atomic nuclei to release vast amounts of energy. These institutions conduct experiments using advanced technologies to create and maintain the extreme temperatures and conditions necessary for fusion. Their goal is to harness this safe, sustainable, and almost limitless energy source for electricity generation, which could provide a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels and significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
