Fusion Impacts
Fusion energy facilities and the fuel cycle will have a broad range of impacts—from providing energy to a variety of sectors, as well as impacts from resource extraction to decommissioning. We are investigating not only those widespread impacts, but also the scalability of fusion energy systems.
