This project hopes to have a 6-10 year plan, maybe less if it can get better funding. Most will agree that there is a need for something with a faster roadmap, but most money is going into tokamaks.
Great! You’ve done some research. Any way you could find the time to post a list of the projects, a line of description, a website link, estimated time to net energy and to commercial reactor? (And others, feel free to chip in w/ your favorites)
Like:
1. Focus Fusion, hydrogen/boron fuel in a dense plasma focus, https://focusfusion.org/, 2-3 years (if funding), 7-10 years.
2. Tri-Alpha…etc.
It’s important to organize this information as we make the case for fusion technology prizes and lobby our representatives in office. A simple, handy consolidated list. The contenders.
