Facilitating Fusion Research

Facilitating Fusion Research

IAEA has always played an important role in facilitating safe and environmentally responsible nuclear energy sources.
Commercial fusion reactors are yet a theoretical possiblity. To help overcome the challenges presented in demonstrating the technological and commercial feasibility of generating electricity using fusion power, the IAEA has been collaborating with the international fusion community, and in particular with researchers at the ITER organization. ITER's partners and experts are building the world’s first international demonstration reactor for fusion power in Cadarache, France.
