Pacific Fusion predicts “1,000-fold leap” in performance, net facility gain by 2030
Inertial fusion energy (IFE) developer Pacific Fusion, based in Fremont, Calif., announced this morning that it is on target to achieve net facility gain—more fusion energy out than all energy stored in the system—with a demonstration system by 2030, and backs the claim with a technical paper published yesterday on arXiv: “Affordable, manageable, practical, and scalable (AMPS) high-yield and high-gain inertial fusion.”

Countdown to 2030 - Framing the Nuclear Technology Agenda for the Next 10 Years
Online Virtual Meeting
Thank you for registering for our 2020 ANS Virtual Annual Meeting! We genuinely appreciate the support you and your organization have shown ANS and the nuclear science and technology community during this unprecedented time.
We know. There is no substitute for real, in-the-flesh energy of fellowship an ANS meeting offers. However, we are committed to enabling the most robust technical exchange and insightful strategic dialogue possible with the virtual tools we have at our disposal. Remember, registration gives you full on-demand access to meeting content shortly after its conclusion, so take full advantage of the content in our plenaries and technical sessions.
The countdown to 2030 is on!
See you soon.
