Fusion energy
=============
Fusion, the nuclear reaction that powers the Sun and the stars, is a promising long-term option for sustainable, non-carbon-emitting energy. Harnessing fusion's power is the goal of ITER—designed as the key experimental step between today's fusion research machines and tomorrow's fusion power plants.

Reaching for the stars
----------------------
The goal of ITER is to achieve [fusion power](/node/2277)Â production at power plant scale, breaking new ground in fusion science and demonstrating fusion reactor technology.
Reimagining energy … together
-----------------------------
China, the European Union, India, Japan, Korea, Russia and the United States are [participating](/about/iter-members)Â in the decades-long project to build and operate ITER, and to train the fusion scientists, engineers and operators of the future.
Engineering the extraordinary
-----------------------------
Conceived at the very frontier of what is possible to design, manufacture, and assemble, the ITER device—[a tokamak](/node/26866)—will be the world’s largest and most powerful, capable of creating a “little star” on Earth.
