If we had to choose one geographical place to pin all of our hopes and dreams for a cleaner, more sustainable future on, Cadarache would surely be that spot. <\/p>\n \n\n\n

In this town in the south of France, all of the world’s biggest players are working side by side on the most ambitious project in scientific history. There, they are building a miniature sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before facing the world’s energy challenges, the first step is building the complex that will house ITER, the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor. The buildings and facilities will house the tokamak, a 23,000-ton machine standing 60 meters high. It is made up of magnets and superconducting cables, and it can produce plasma, imitating the Sun’s process of nuclear fusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From a distance, the massive project is not hidden. <\/strong>It occupies 42 hectares in all, encompassing 39 buildings – seven of which Ferrovial has built. More than 2,000 employees already work at ITER, which expects to see its first results in 2025.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/m-wysiwig>\n\n\n\n\t\n\t\t\t\t

One of the major challenges of nuclear fusion is getting it to generate more energy than it uses. Hence, the importance of designing a high-voltage electrical network that can supply the energy needed to heat the plasma in the reactor and activate the cryogenization and cooling systems; this miniature sun will be in a controlled environment at -269\u00ba C (-452\u00ba F).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oil and coal combustion must give way to an energy model with lower emissions. The future of our species must not be put at risk. Cadarache is home to a faint optimism, a hope for a future with clean, sustainable energy.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/m-wysiwig>\n\n\n \n
