My questions are for you tonight, Dr. Barber.
I have read some articles on fusion technology and investment in the United States. It seems there's quite a bit of private money going into the U.S. economy. Commonwealth Fusion Systems announced it has more than $1.8 billion in funding for commercialized fusion energy. Helion Energy secured half a billion dollars for fusion technology, with another $1.7 billion waiting. TAE Technologies has raised $250 million in its latest funding from investors like Chevron and Google.
Why is most of the private investment into fusion technology going into the United States instead of Canada, and how can we attract more investment here?
