 The UK is home to the world’s largest magnetic fusion experiment and the UK Atomic Energy Authority has started work on a new nuclear test facility in Rotherham. We hear from two UKAEA directors about how the UK could be poised to lead a nuclear fusion revolution. 


We also examine how agency infighting is stalling America's offshore wind ambitions, consider the prospects for geothermal energy in the UK, ask whether wind-powered algae could make bioreactors competitive, and learn how dehydration tech is reviving the 'clean coal' concept.
