Fusion has long promised limitless safe power and some claim it is the silver bullet for our energy challenges. Yet, decades after it was first conceived, we still seem far from commercialisation. In this talk we will look at the physical and engineering challenges, what we’ve achieved so far and what needs to be done if we are to realise the potential of this technology.

The total contribution of air travel to global warming is estimated to be around 4% and second only to road transport. Whereas road transport is moving toward battery power no obvious solution exists for long distance commercial flights. Batteries and Hydrogen simply don't cut it for long distance commercial flights. Richard takes us on a deep dive into the possibilities of how green air transport can be achieved.
