Commonwealth Fusion Systems installs reactor magnet, lands deal with Nvidia | TechCrunch

The magnet is the first of 18 that, when the reactor is complete, will create a doughnut-like shape that will produce a powerful magnetic field to confine and compress superheated plasma. If all goes well, that plasma will release more energy than it takes to heat and compress it. After decades of promise and delay, fusion power appears to be just around the corner - CFS and its competitors are locked in a race to deliver the first electrons to the grid sometime in the early 2030s.
