Calling all fusioneers! On May 9, you won’t need to be in Southern California to get up close and personal with our fifth-generation fusion research machine, Norman. As part of the inaugural Fusion Energy Week – U.S. Fusion Energy, we’re hosting a virtual tour of our lab! The tour will give a peek into Norman’s fusion operations and offer a closer look at our proprietary accelerator beam and power supply technology, all designed to bring hydrogen-boron fusion to the grid. Viewing will be one-time-only; sign up here to join us: https://bit.ly/3JCRdAo 💻 ⚡

Current state of fusion has six “credible” approaches to fusion by private companies with power-to-the-grid dates in early 2030s.
“We’ll have the first power plant on the grid [in the early part of the decade]. And you’ll be able to charge your phone with energy coming coming from fusion.” Bart Markus, Chairman, First Light Fusion on the future of fusion energy. #BloombergTech

For a commercially viable fusion energy plant, research, design and development is needed to create an efficient, continuously operational fuel cycle. That’s where SRNL’s expertise comes in. SRNL’s vision for the fusion fuel cycle breeds new tritium and recovers unburned tritium, purifies it, and prepares it to be fed back into the reactor, creating a safer, more efficient fuel cycle.

Unlocking the Future: #NuclearFusion #ZapEnergy #Innovation Key Takeaways: - Fusion energy progress exceeds Moore's Law in critical metrics. - Z-pinch technology pivotal in making fusion reactors compact and scalable. - Viable fusion electricity on the grid expected by the early 2030s. Further Insights 1. Fusion Potential: Fusion energy, mirroring the process powering stars, offers nearly limitless, clean energy, overcoming gravity's absence on Earth by heating, compressing, and confining plasma in innovative ways. 2. Z-Pinch Breakthrough: Zap Energy's Z-pinch method uses self-generated magnetic fields to compress plasma into fusion conditions, stabilized via sheared flow for significantly longer durations, overcoming historical instability challenges. 3. Commercialization Path: With over $200 million in funding and rapid advancements, Zap Energy aims to commercialize fusion technology by the early 2030s, emphasizing the development of compact, scalable fusion reactors for widespread utility. 4. Fuel and Future: Utilizing deuterium and tritium, the approach promises a sustainable and abundant fuel source. As fusion technology evolves, it may pivot to high-value, early adopters in sectors prioritizing energy resilience and sustainability. 5. Ecosystem and IP Strategy: Zap Energy leverages foundational patents and new innovations for Z-pinch and sheared flow stabilization, while actively engaging with energy and utility sectors to integrate fusion into existing grids and markets. Closing Thoughts: Considering Zap Energy's approach and commercialization timeline, how might the broader energy sector prepare for the integration of fusion technology? The journey towards viable fusion energy is not just about overcoming technical hurdles but also about forging strategic partnerships and fostering an ecosystem ready for a paradigm shift in power generation.

"Fusion energy holds immense potential as a clean and abundant source of power, but a lot of work remains to be done. Engineers and scientists at SLAC are building a new state-of-the-art instrument to further our understanding of fusion energy among many other capabilities. This instrument will be coupled with LCLS, SLAC’s X-ray free-electron laser or XFEL. XFELs serve as a very high-speed camera to look at atomic interactions. Combining this X-ray laser with an instrument that can, for a brief instant, produce extremely high pressures and temperatures will allow scientists to observe and analyze the behavior of matter under extreme conditions, such as those encountered within fusion devices for clean energy. Fusion energy research has the potential to advance our understanding of this clean energy source, and will pave the way for future advancements in sustainable power generation! Video is produced by SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory where the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) is located. Written & Edited by Olivier Bonin."
