Hot Nuclear Fusion developers bag $267 million in investment

I cannot imagine billionaires such as Gates, Ma, and Bezos investing in fusion if they did not think they could make money from it.

Bezos’ Fusion Company gets $65 million from private investors

A 100 megawatt plant could generate enough electricity to power a city of 100,000 people. Hence, General Fusion’s demonstration plant could theoretically power Boulder, Colorado. Boulder had a population of 107,125 people in 2017.

Is the US Navy trying to Patent a Fusion Reactor?

United States Patent Application 20190295733 describes: “A plasma compression fusion device which includes a hollow duct and at least one pair of opposing counter-spinning dynamic fusors.” The Navy applied for the patent on 22 March 2019 and the US Patent Office published the patent on 26 September 2019.

Notably, Skunk Works Vice President and General Manager Jeff Babione hopes to the get the T5 up and running by the end of this year. The hope is that the CFR will generate enough electricity to power a Nimitz class aircraft carrier, or 80,000 homes. Moreover, the CFR could power the city of Santa Fe, New Mexico, which had a population of 83,776 people in 2017.

Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, and Jack Ma investing in Hot Fusion Company

To explain, Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) appears on a list of companies Gates’ hedge fund Breakthrough Energy Ventures (BEV) is investing in, Quartz reveals. Importantly, Commonwealth claims it can commercialize hot nuclear fusion within 15 years.

The first goal at CFS is to build a tokamak fusion reactor capable of generating 100 Megawatts (MW) of electricity, a press release reveals. In detail, 100 MW is enough juice to power a city of 100,000 people or the size of Boulder, Colorado.

Have Scientists Found the Secret to Hot Fusion?

The magnetic flux pumping can make hybrid scenarios that allow plasma to operate in any state. That would make a commercial fusion reactor possible. Advantages to this can include self-regulating fusion reactors.

Such temperatures would be necessary to generate a sustained fusion reaction stable enough to serve as a power source. The stellarator achieved those temperatures by using 18 times more energy than used in earlier tests. That indicates a stable and sustainable fusion reaction is possible.

Eni Executive Hot Fusion Reactor would Cost $3 Billion

The reactor would power around 150,000 homes; or a city about the size of Norwich, England. This estimate is based on the standard calculation that a megawatt is enough electricity for 750 homes.
A megawatt is one million watts of electricity, so the reactor would generate 200 million watts of electricity. That reactor would have the capacity to generate electricity as soon as it was up and running.

“After the transition to renewable energy, the real breakthrough technologically is nuclear fusion,” Robert Casula told Reuters. Casula thinks it would cost $3 billion to develop and build a 200-megawatt fusion reactor and it might be up and running by 2033.

MIT starts Commercializing Hot Fusion

“Researchers at MIT have designed a way to use high-temperature superconductors to produce powerful magnetic fields that provide superior confinement of the hot plasma — enabling a net energy fusion device at much smaller scale than did previous experiments,” MIT Vice President for Research Maria T. Zuber wrote in The Boston Globe.
Commonwealth Fusion Systems was founded by former MIT students and researchers that want to commercialize hot fusion. Commonwealth has also received some money from unidentified “U.S. Investment Funds,” Zuber claimed.
