☢️ Bill Gates invests in next-generation nuclear power in Wyoming
Bill Gates and his energy company TerraPower are starting the construction of an advanced nuclear power plant in Wyoming. The project uses sodium for cooling instead of water, making it safer and more efficient. The plant is estimated to cost up to 4 billion dollars.
⚡ Fusion power breakthrough is repeated (now even more energy out than in)
US scientists achieve net energy gain in fusion reaction for the second time. The latest experiment produced more energy than the first one conducted last year.
⚡ A fusion-powered future: closer than we think? Microsoft bets it is
Helion Energy thinks it can produce electricity from fusion power in five years. So does Microsoft.
⚡ Nuclear fusion breakthrough: More energy out than in
For the first time in history, scientists have managed to produce more energy from nuclear fusion than what was required for the lasers to drive it.
