This carefully researched book presents facts and arguments
showing, beyond a doubt, that nuclear fusion power will not be
technically feasible in time to satisfy the world's urgent need for
climate-neutral energy. The author describes the 70-year history of
nuclear fusion; the vain attempts to construct an energy-generating
nuclear fusion power reactor, and shows that even in the most
optimistic scenario nuclear fusion, in spite of the claims of its
proponents, will not be able to make a sizable contribution to the
energy mix in this century, whatever the outcome of ITER. This
implies that fusion power will not be a factor in combating climate
change, and that the race to save the climate with carbon-free
energy will have been won or lost long before the first nuclear
fusion power station comes on line. Aimed at the general public as
well as those whose decisions directly affect energy policy, this
book will be a valuable resource for informing future debates.
