Don’t you still need to spend energy on confinement? You don’t need to “reignite” the plasma but w/e confinement solution you chosen still has a cost and a non marginal one when it comes to magnetic confinement.
- gene-h 5y agothis uses inertial confinement rather than magnetic confinement.
- dogma1138 5y agoYou still need big ass lasers or particle accelerators for ICF too, these tend to be quite energy intensive too.
- tsimionescu 5y agoYes, with ICF you do need to constantly reignite the plasma.
