Fusion Development Projects
ITER
The most powerful tokamak is now built in France by an international collaboration of 35 nations and is called ITER. It cost about 20 billion dollars. According to its designers ITER will produce 500MW of energy 10 time the energy it consumes. The ITER project started in 1988 and its construction will end in 2025.
