With the ITER experiment on track to begin operations in 5-10 years, the United States has the opportunity to begin planning for its first fusion energy pilot plant. This study will map out the high-level scientific, technical, and logistical goals and key innovations needed to support the development of a fusion test plant that can serve as a model for producing electricity at the lowest possible capital cost.
This is a follow-on activity to the 2019 National Academies report, the Final Report of the Committee on a Strategic Plan for U.S. Burning Plasma Research.
