Status and prospects of the fusion technology; Fuusioteknologian nykytila ja tulevaisuus

Abstract

An assessment of the status and prospects of the fusion technology in particular, with respect to the description of the present tokamak devices and future reactors is carried out. Issues to be reviewed include: superconducting magnets, heating and current-drive systems, plasma control, maintainence, materials, tritium breeding and blanket systems. The costs of the fusion electricity and environmental aspects are also considered.
