>$1.4 billion to U.S. industry, universities, and national laboratories
Status
Civil construction of the international ITER project is largely complete, machine assembly is in progress, and four of the six U.S.-provided superconducting central solenoid magnet modules are stacked for assembly on site. The remaining two modules are on schedule for delivery in 2025, and fabrication and delivery of other essential hardware systems continues.
Value
ITER will produce and control a self-sustaining fusion power source plus deliver a first-of-a-kind fusion R&D resource to support practical fusion energy development. ITER also will deliver experience and know-how relevant for reliable, economical fusion systems.
Partnership in ITER has already begun developing the United State’s fusion workforce and specialized supply chains.
