Fusion and Land Use
A compact fusion plant packs a great deal of firm power into a small footprint.
- Character
- Compact, high-density
- Siting
- Point-of-use (burner)
High-field, compact machines generate large, firm power from a small site, with none of the land intensity of intermittent sources. The burner's point-of-use, low-neutron character further eases siting near demand.
