Abstract

After breaking world records for inertial and magnetic fusion energy at the National Ignition Facility (NIF) and the Joint European Torus (JET) respectively, the Directors of the host organizations – Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and the UK Atomic Energy Authority – reflect on the bold decisions taken to build these facilities and the consistent support needed to allow scientists and engineers to overcome difficult technical problems. The successes of the National Ignition Facility (NIF) and the Joint European Torus (JET) showcase how fusion energy research requires bold decisions, teamwork and strong partnership with funders.
