Nuclear fusion energy could become commercially viable by the early 2030s as scientists work to replicate the sun's power, potentially transforming energy.

Clean energy from nuclear fusion may soon be commercial. But leaders around the world have done little to prepare.

The keys to harnessing fusion power—a clean, almost limitless supply of energy—sit in the heart of the sun. The only way we can access that heart is by listening to the sun’s heartbeat. To start up a ...
