The Fusion Development Facility (FDF)

The Fusion Development Facility (FDF) Mission

Carry Forward Advanced Tokamak Physics and Enable Development of Fusion's Energy Applications

Demonstrate advanced physics operation of a tokamak in steadystate with burn
Develop fusion nuclear technology
With ITER and IFMIF, provide the basis for a fusion DEMO Power Plant
