European researchers achieve fusion energy record
Explainer video about the JET record by EUROfusion programme manager Tony Donné: Landmark results from EUROfusion scientists and engineers at world-leading Joint European Torus (JET) facility in Oxford, UK Record-breaking 59 megajoules of sustained fusion energy demonstrates potential of fusion Results fully in line with predictions, strengthening the case for ITER Fusion energy can provide […]
Transferring fusion knowledge across generations
Experiments by EUROfusion researchers at the JET fusion device in the UK clear the way for successful fusion energy experiments at ITER in a decade. How do scientists preserve and pass on the knowledge and experience involved? And how do they feel about passing on the baton?
Making JET a technology test facility for ITER
The JET fusion device has seen major improvements to bring it as close as possible to the conditions expected in a future fusion power plant. Two JET experts take us through the upgrades and how they make JET into a technology test facility for ITER.
