Fusion for Energy (F4E) is the European Union's Joint Undertaking for ITER and the Development of Fusion Energy. According to the agency's website: F4E is responsible for providing Europe's contribution to ITER, the world's largest scientific partnership that aims to demonstrate fusion as a viable and sustainable source of energy.
As of 2023 the device is known as JT-60SA and is the largest operational superconducting tokamak in the world, [1] built and operated jointly by the European Union and Japan in Naka, Ibaraki Prefecture. [2] [3] SA stands for super advanced tokamak, including a D-shaped plasma cross-section, superconducting coils, and active feedback control.
As of 2023, the Wendelstein 7-X reactor is the world's largest stellarator device. [3] After two successful operation phases ending in October 2018, the reactor was taken offline for upgrades. [4] [5] The upgrade completed in 2022. New fusion experiments in February 2023 demonstrated longer confinement and increased power. [6]
