DESCRIPTION
“ITER – Providing for the Energy Needs of the Future” Joe Onstott 1Joe Onstott is Financial Officer on the ITER Project. His presentation will provide an overview of the world’s current and future energy needs and how fusion can help to provide for those needs. It will also introduce the field of fusion research and the progress that has been made until now throughout the world. the presentation introduces the ITER Project, the world’s largest scientific partnership that aims to make the transition from experimental fusion research to the full-scale electricity-producing power plants of the future. http://evaintheuk.org/
