Imaginary Energies allows users to design futuristic fission and fusion power plants
The University of Michigan’s Fastest Path to Zero Initiative has launched Imaginary Energies, an interactive, generative visualization tool meant to encourage members of the public to imagine future designs for fission and fusion energy power plants. Including a waste management facility on site is as easy as checking a box, and the tool also allows users to add wind, solar, hydro, and other clean-energy facilities. The AI tool was inspired by a design workshop that the university held in 2023.
