How can you sell power when you use more power to run the generator than you produce?

They'll make up for it in volume. /s

The idea is that if you can get fusion happening, you can optimize the process so that it takes less energy to contain it than it yields.

That's not how E=MC2 works.

That's not how the conservation of energy works.

That's not how fusion works.

Dunce hat for you.

Its literally in their article you moron. They havent gotten to true fusion yet. They still input more than they get out of the reaction, as it hasn’t reached a self sustaining state. Until they overcome that MAJOR hurdle they cant say they have shit and they have nothing to sel.

"The goal for Helion and every other fusion power hopeful company is to create a system that generates more energy than is needed to operate it. This objective will take a central role at Helion's new facility in Everett, Washington, where up to 150 jobs will be created. "At this facility, Helion will close in on its goal of breaking the fusion barrier and pushing the world towards the end of the fossil fuel era," said CEO and Founder of Helion Energy, David Kirtley. And it can't come soon enough."

So like all the rest they aren't actually even close to a working system yet.

Let me guess -- in 50 years, right? Because fusion power is always 50 years away.

It's not fifty years away. China has a working reactor.

This is all classified. Stop talking about it. And don’t talk about zero point energy either you traitors.

What is the mechanism?

Fusion power harnesses the power of the sun itself

So does solar.
