China experimenting with fusion technologies

Post by fusionfan »

Interesting article in Popular Science on China's efforts in nuclear power, including fusion:

"One confidential diplomatic cable sent from the Beijing Embassy to Washington in February suggests China is doing big things at the small scale. For one, China is aggressively expanding its nuclear energy resources, with plans to open at least 70 nuclear plants in the next decade. More interestingly, the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) is pouring research funding into its Institute of Plasma Physics (IPP) to conduct ongoing research into nuclear fusion."

I saw that as well. One would have to assume they are trying. They try pretty much everything else they see.
