I'm not a super believer in the possibility of fusion, but you can imagine that there might be benefits from doubling the size of a reactor in terms of decreased operational costs or even decreased construction costs (less need to duplicate infrastructure).
I'm by no means an expert though.
- pfdietz 8y agoBut here I'm talking about size for a given power output, not increasing size and power output together. The size/power of a fusion reactor is much larger than the size/power of a fission reactor, for fundamental reasons.
