In total, Russian enterprises have manufactured and shipped more than 1,000 pedestals. The ITER Design Centre, a private institution under Rosatom, performs the functions of the Russian National Agency for ITER, responsible for ensuring Russia's in-kind contribution to the project.

The technical objectives of STEP are: to deliver predictable net electricity greater than 100 MW; to innovate to exploit fusion energy beyond electricity production; to ensure tritium self-sufficiency; to qualify materials and components under appropriate fusion conditions; and to develop a viable path to affordable lifecycle costs.

The 25th batch of Russian electrical equipment was successfully delivered to the construction site of the international thermonuclear experimental reactor Iter in France,

ITER is a major international project to build a tokamak fusion device in Cadarache, France, designed to prove the feasibility of fusion as a large-scale and carbon-free source of energy.

The Office of Nuclear Regulation is responsible for the regulation of the safety and security of nuclear installations in the UK. However, fusion reactors are not prescribed installations for the purposes of the Nuclear Installations Act 1965.

In the realm of fusion science discovery, improved AI-based modelling of plasma dynamics from experimental data and plasma simulations offers the possibility of enabling predictive modelling for real-time monitoring

SPARC is described by PSFC as a compact, high-field, net fusion energy device which would be the size of existing mid-sized fusion devices, but with a much stronger magnetic field. It is predicted to produce 50-100 MW of fusion power, achieving fusion gain greater than 10.

First Light Fusion (First Light), the University of Oxford fusion spin-out, today confirms it has achieved fusion. The UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) has independently validated the result.

the Biden-Harris Administration announced that it is developing a bold decadal vision to accelerate fusion – a clean energy technology that uses the same reaction that powers the Sun and stars.

The company added that the milestone of achieving 100 million degrees Celsius plasma has been verified by an independent advisory board consisting of international experts.
