Commonwealth Fusion Systems in our portfolio has laid the physics foundation for its ARC fusion power plant. Five peer-reviewed papers validate key scientific assumptions behind ARC: how CFS plans to control plasma, manage disruptions, handle heat exhaust, and deliver 400 MW of continuous net electricity to the grid. Fusion must clear a high bar: big claims, hard physics. CFS is putting its work through independent review while building SPARC, its Massachusetts demonstration machine, to show how this approach carries into a power plant. https://lnkd.in/eDvk7YWy
