In September this year, US Energy Secretary Chris Wright claimed that nuclear fusion could be harnessed within the next five years, with its application to the electricity grid expected within eight to fifteen years. Fusion research has been ongoing for over a century, with experiments beginning in the 1950s. To date, the most successful nuclear fusion experiment was almost 30 years ago, achieving an energy output equal to 0.67 times the input. Unlike nuclear fission, fusion has recentl...
