Throughout the past five decades, research and development in the world of nuclear fusion has been led by large publicly funded national laboratories. Currently, fusion energy technology development is being embraced by small, fast-moving start-up companies.
This
edited book provides an overview of the commercialisation of fusion energy
technology, stressing the role to be played by small businesses and the ongoing
importance of public sector efforts. All chapters were peer-reviewed by experts
before publication to ensure the reliability of the scientific content. The
editors are of the opinion that "there is a need for a good overview of a
complex phenomenon that has the potential to transform fusion energy research
after decades of leadership by governmental and inter-governmental efforts."
The book addresses not only the science and technology of fusion
commercialisation, but also the associated innovation management.
The first section of the book provides an introduction to private fusion
and explains that the marketed product will not necessarily be electricity. The
policy context of a global need for decarbonisation is introduced and compared
to the timescales of fusion commercialisation. The second section introduces
some of the leading private sector initiatives in fusion from around the world.
Then, the third section outlines the public sector’s ongoing efforts toward
commercialisation. And finally, the fourth section discusses the challenges and
future opportunities of private fusion.
