Fusion Energy
When will fusion power actually reach the grid?
A rigorous feasibility analysis of commercial fusion power — examining the physics, materials science, and economics that determine the real timeline.
Current State of Fusion Technology
What has been demonstrated, what hasn't, and where the 45+ private fusion companies actually stand.
The Q-Value Hierarchy — What Each Level Means
From scientific Q to commercial Q: the chain of energy conversions that determines whether fusion can ever pay for itself.
The 14.1 MeV Neutron Problem
Fusion's hardest engineering challenge: why 14.1 MeV neutrons cause qualitatively different damage than fission neutrons.
The Materials Testing Bottleneck
Why existing neutron sources are inadequate, what IFMIF-DONES will provide, and what fission history tells us about qualification timelines.
Economics, Probability, and Key Uncertainties
Cost benchmarks, probability estimates for grid-scale subsidy-free fusion, and the factors that could accelerate or delay the timeline.
