The Lawrence
Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) said an experiment it conducted this month
“produced more energy from fusion than the laser energy used to drive it.”
The
US Department of Energy described the achievement of fusion ignition as a “major scientific
breakthrough” that will lead to “advancements in national defense and the
future of clean power.”
LLNL Director Kim
Budil described it as “is one of the most significant scientific challenges
ever tackled by humanity”.
Scientists have
been working for decades to develop nuclear fusion — touted by its supporters
as a clean, abundant and safe source of energy that could eventually allow
humanity to break its dependence on the fossil fuels driving a global climate
crisis.
