- Title
Fusion Research: Time to Set a New Path.
- Authors
HIRSCH, ROBERT L.
- Abstract
The author focuses on the use of tokamak plasma confinement concept to generate fusion energy and the lesson learned on their limitations that prevent them from being commercially available. Topics include the three major interrelated criteria for fusion power success identified by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), the plan of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to regulate fusion power plants, and the lesson learned for future fusion research.
