In recent years, EAST has continuously achieved groundbreaking milestones in the high confinement mode, which serves as the fundamental mode for experimental fusion reactors, including ITER and the future China Fusion Engineering Test Reactor, providing valuable references for the construction of fusion reactors worldwide.
"We hope to expand international collaboration via EAST and bring fusion energy into practical use for humanity," said Song.
In Hefei, East China's Anhui province, where EAST is located, a new generation of experimental fusion research facilities is under construction — aiming to further accelerate the application and development of fusion energy.
