The United States designed a fusion reactor. It can heat up to a billion degrees

The non-radioactive method used by TAE, a pioneer in the field of hydrogen and boron synthesis, is the most

the fastest, most feasible and most cost-effective way to put large amounts of carbon-free electricity into the grid.The goal of the projected Copernicus reactor, which will be built at a 1 million m2 facility in California, is toto show that an advanced inverse-field configuration cangenerate clean energy.

Reactor "Norman", the predecessor of "Copernicus",developed by TAE to maintain plasma temperatures at 30 million degrees Celsius was introduced in 2017. The machine has demonstrated the ability to maintain a stable plasma at a temperature of more than 75 million degrees Celsius, which is 250% more than planned.

TAE received support from investors and is currentlymoment attracted a total of $1.2 billion in its development. The mission of TAE, according to the project leaders, is to provide a long-term and secure solution to the rapidly growing global demand for electricity. The non-radioactive method without carbon and particulate emissions minimizes any negative impact on the environment.
