CFEDR

CFEDR image
Description

The China Fusion Engineering Demo Reactor (CFEDR) is a planned tokamak facility designed to bridge the gap between experimental fusion research and commercial power plants. It is an evolution of the CFETR concept; this device aims to generate 1.5 to 3 gigawatts of fusion power while demonstrating the ability to breed its own tritium fuel for sustained operations.

Crimson Skyblade
