Scientists at Ames National Laboratory have developed a new AI tool. This combines advanced AI with physics-based modelling, allowing researchers to predict materials with the appropriate properties to function within fusion reactors.
This tool can benefit scientists in exploring a wide range of potential alloy compositions that can maintain high-temperature strength, while retaining the ductility needed for manufacturing the materials.

The IFuEL project is developing efficient solid-state laser technology for sustainable fusion energy and provides a test facility for plasma-facing materials. With the global demand for clean energy rising, this project handles the challenges that come with inertial fusion power, whilst also working to lower costs and improve efficiency.
The IFuEL project aims to enhance the practicality of fusion energy, doing so by developing innovative laser systems, with the aim of paving the way for a cleaner and more sustainable future.

Zap Energy recently announced plans to become the first company to simultaneously pursue fusion and fission. Fusion innovators have typically ruled out a connection between their nuclear solution and conventional fission, given public concerns.
Zap’s leaders say that distinction creates a ‘false wall’ that the company is ready to knock down. Building fission technology is not only more predictable and would provide more instant revenue, it also supports research that advances its fusion work.
