Scientists are working to dramatically speed up the development of fusion energy in an effort to deliver power to the electric grid soon enough to help mitigate impacts of climate change. The arrival of a breakthrough technology – high-temperature superconductors, which can be used to build magnets that produce stronger magnetic fields than previously possible – could help them achieve this goal. Researchers plan to use this technology to build magnets at the scale required for fusion.
