From SPARC to ARC: CFS prepares for a first-of-a-kind fusion plant
Commonwealth Fusion Systems makes no small plans. The company wants to build a 400-MWe magnetic confinement fusion power plant called ARC near Richmond, Va., and begin operating it in the early 2030s. And the plans don’t end there. CFS wants to deploy “thousands” of fusion power plants capable of accelerating a global energy transition.
U.S. Nuclear Nexus is a web platform with a human interface that connects U.S. industry to NNSA resources and expertise by providing a single point of access to NNSA and DOE laboratory complex’s recommendations, training, working groups, reference tools, and other relevant regulations. Nexus combines a human interface with a request tracking system to respond and manage support and engagement among NNSA and U.S. Government offices. Nexus helps integrate international nuclear safeguards and nuclear security early in the design process.
