 \nBurnaby-based General Fusion is developing the fastest\, most practical 
 path to commercial fusion energy - a clean\, safe\, abundant and on-demand
  form of energy that\, when harnessed\, could provide a nearly unlimited s
 ource of power with zero CO2 emissions. The company is combining state-of-
 the-art plasma physics with more traditional technology such as gas driven
  pistons in the pursuit of a power plant that can be practically implement
 ed at commercial scale. In this talk\, Chief Technology Officer Michael De
 lage will discuss the progress of fusion energy development\, the challeng
 es it faces\, and the technology being developed here in BC that could lea
 d to clean energy\, everywhere\, forever.\n\nCo-sponsored by: Dipendra Rai
