Starting a new thread for this.
We've started construction on the site of the world's first fusion power plant, Orion.

Located in Malaga, WA, Orion will begin delivering electricity from fusion to Microsoft by 2028.
This is a big deal! They are moving concrete already! The permits were the hardest part, I heard. Only fusion and some solar are getting permits in WA.
A lot went into securing this site - from initial interconnect studies, working with local community members, and obtaining the world's first Environmental Mitigated Determination of Non-significance for fusion. Can't say enough about our team who Built with urgency over the last year to make this happen!!
