National Fusion Research Institute

The National Fusion Research Institute (NFRI) in South Korea focuses on developing nuclear fusion as a clean and virtually limitless energy source. It conducts advanced research and experiments to replicate the sun’s process of energy production, where atomic nuclei fuse together to release significant amounts of energy. NFRI operates facilities like the Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research (KSTAR) to explore and enhance the technologies needed for practical fusion energy. The institute aims to contribute to global efforts in harnessing fusion power, which could address energy needs while minimizing environmental impacts.
