Fusion for the Grid
A decarbonised grid still needs firm power underneath the renewables. That is the burner's job.
- Product
- MetroVolt burner
- Role
- Firm, dispatchable baseload
- Class
- 13.678 GW
As grids fill with intermittent solar and wind, the scarce, valuable commodity becomes firm, dispatchable, clean generation. The MetroVolt burner housing (1400 m, +2832 MWe net, 13.678 GW class) is aimed squarely at that role: steady baseload that can also follow load, with no operational carbon and secure fuel.
