Researchers from the Lawrence National Laboratory in the USA (LLNL) made a scientific breakthrough, which consists in the fact that due to the inertial thermonuclear reaction, more energy is produced than it is spent on its creation. The experiment will be demonstrated by on the site fusion indestry association.
For comparison, in 2021 the National Laboratory Llnl reported about the synthesis reaction, as a result of which The output capacity was only 70% of the input power.
The Fusion project was launched at the beginning of the 20th century and is the merger of two atomic nuclei to release energy. The experiment included the fusion of hydrogen isotopes, weighed in a gout plasma state, to create a helium core and release an energetic neutron.
“Thermonuclear fusion synthesis can become an almost inexhaustible and environmentally friendly source of energy that does not produce combustion products or greenhouse gases,” the Ministry of Energy explains. “Although synthesis is a nuclear process, the products of the synthesis reaction (helium and neutrons) are not radioactive by nature.”
According to sources , familiar with the results of scientists, the output energy turned out to be so powerful that Some laboratory equipment failed.
Infinite environmentally friendly energy has obvious advantages over limited fossil types that harm the climate and environment.
In September 2022, the Ministry of Energy announced plans to allocate $ 50 million for the development of a functioning thermonuclear reactor by the beginning of the 2030s. According to Fusion Industry Association, since June 2021, companies in the field of thermonuclear industry attracted $ 2.83 billion investments, as a result of which the total investment of the private sector has reached almost $ 4.9 billion
