Google has announced its intent to purchase 200 megawatts of fusion energy from Commonwealth Fusion Systems, contingent on the startup's success in developing a functional reactor. CFS's ARC fusion power plant, which utilizes a Tokamak design with superconducting magnets, aims to become operational in the early 2030s. Despite no one having achieved a net-energy-positive fusion reactor to date, the potential for clean energy has attracted significant investment from tech giants, as they seek efficient energy solutions for growing AI demands.
Google's purchase of fusion energy from Commonwealth Fusion Systems is a significant step in harnessing the untapped potential of fusion power for clean energy.
CFS's development of a Tokamak-style reactor aims to achieve net positive fusion energy by the early 2030s, addressing a long-standing challenge.
