Earlier this week, after years of preparation, Emmanuel Macron inaugurated the assembly phase of the international collaborative effort to demonstrate that a nuclear fusion reaction can be achieved and sustained to generate energy at commercially viable levels.
Iter (see previously) is being constructed in Provence next to an existing facility called Cadarache that conducts research into nuclear and alternative energy and fuel sources and this largest of more than one hundred experimental fusion reactors built dating back to the 1950s to produce plasma by 2025 and if successful will furnish clean and virtually unlimited power.
