A Giant Leap For Fusion, But A Long Wait Ahead The ITER, a $28 billion fusion reactor in France, has achieved a significant milestone with the installation of its final magnetic coil. However, the ambitious project won't see full operation until at least 2039. The world's largest fusion reactor has finally been assembled, marking a monumental achievement in the pursuit of clean energy. Scientists behind the International Fusion Energy Project (ITER) announced the completion of the assembly of the reactor, which comprises 19 massive coils forming toroidal magnets. Originally set to begin testing in 2020, the project has faced numerous delays, pushing the operational date to 2039 at the earliest. A Collaborative Effort ITER is a product of international collaboration involving 35 countries, including all European Union member states, Russia, China, India, and the United States.
