EUROfusion starts design of demonstration fusion power plant in new research programme

Following its record-breaking results earlier this year, Europe's research consortium for fusion energy EUROfusion will announce the start of conceptual design activities for Europe's first demonstration fusion power plant DEMO at the Horizon EUROfusion event on 5 July 2022. This first-of-a-kind fusion device is due to come into operation around the middle of this century and demonstrate the net production of 300 to 500 megawatts of clean and safe fusion energy to the grid.
