Princeton Plasma Physics Lab

The Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) is a research facility dedicated to studying plasma—the hot, charged state of matter found in stars and fusion energy. Located in New Jersey, it aims to develop fusion power as a clean, virtually limitless energy source. PPPL conducts experiments to understand how to control and sustain plasma at extremely high temperatures, working toward the goal of producing fusion reactions similar to those in the sun. Their research contributes to advancing fusion technology, with the potential to provide a safe, sustainable, and abundant energy supply for the future.
