Nuclear Fusion
Fusion energy aims to power the grid with the same process that fuels the sun, and the engineering is moving from physics experiments toward real machines. This section follows the milestones that matter: record plasma results, magnet and materials advances, new test reactors, and the funding and regulatory steps that bring pilot plants closer, explained without jargon.
We stick to what labs and companies have actually measured and published, and we say clearly when a result comes from a single experiment or a company’s own report. Each article links to its sources and explains what changed, what is still unproven, and how far fusion remains from delivering power to homes and businesses.

UK Opens £115M Tender for STEP Fusion Plant Systems
A procurement notice is not a power plant. Still, five contracts covering fuel, control and testing show how a British prototype moves from drawings toward hardware, and why 2040 remains a target.
