Which Fusion Energy Path will Yield Economic Power First?
By this I mean provide economically competative base-load power.
Fusion Energy Poll
Deja vue? We had similar before, no? Surely the answer is that solar already can, but its issue is capacity (and, as all of them, also time-scale of return), not efficiency of production. I can now buy polycrystallines that, providing they last 20 years without servicing, beat base-load.
Excepting solar; as in previous poll, I would say it will be a device as Todd Rider describes in section E.2.2 of his thesis ["Potential New Approaches..">"Closed Orbit, High Velocity Resonant Device"].
