A panel of senior representatives from the world’s leading fusion energy companies discuss and define the path to commercialisation of fusion energy:

  • What is the current status of the leading technologies?
  • Is progress accelerating? What challenges remain to achieving breakeven?
  • What is the consensus view on most likely/worst case for fusion in the grid?
  • How does the path evolve as it moves from science and tech, to engineering, to construction, to commercial risk?
  • What is the relationship between the timeframe for commercialisation and that for strong investment returns?
