CBS Mornings - U.S. expected to announce fusion energy "breakthrough" 13122022

Lilia Luciano reports on scientists who were able to produce a fusion reaction that created a net energy gain. This could be developed to (one day potentially) provide a limitless and clean source of power that would end reliance on fossil fuels.

DW News - Breakthrough in nuclear fusion raises hopes for unlimited clean energy source 13122022

The US Department of Energy announced a major breakthrough in nuclear fusion technology on Tuesday. Scientists at the California-based Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's National Ignition Facility (NIF) successfully generated a "net energy gain" using nuclear fusion in a lab for the first time.

Wall Street Journal - Podcast - Nuclear-Fusion Breakthrough: How Long Until Limitless Clean Energy? 14122022

The U.S. Department of Energy has announced a major breakthrough in nuclear fusion, saying scientists achieved a fusion reaction that generated more energy than it consumed. The development could bring the world a step closer to potentially limitless amounts of clean energy. But how soon is that goal really achievable? WSJ science reporter Aylin Woodward joins host Zoe Thomas to talk through the research and the possibilities.

Undecided - Why Nuclear Fusion is Closer Than You Think, 15112022

Fusion energy is considered by many as the holy grail for supplying all of our clean electricity needs. However, the old joke is that nuclear fusion is always 30 years away, no matter what advances or promises are made. But now there are several privately funded startups that are accelerating nuclear fusion development with the ultimate goal of commercializing electricity production much sooner than you might think possible.
