- Abstract
This document is an editorial discussing advances in nuclear fusion energy and cross-cutting technologies. The current energy model, based on fossil fuels, is unsustainable and contributes to global warming. Nuclear fusion, specifically the use of breeding blankets, is a promising alternative energy source. The document highlights recent advancements in fusion technologies, such as the Helium-Cooled Pebble Bed (HCPB) and Water-Cooled Lithium Lead (WCLL) breeding blanket concepts. It also discusses safety systems, tritium permeation, and the development of fusion power plants. The editorial emphasizes the need for further research and development in these areas.
