The photonics industry plays a pivotal role in advancing zero-carbon energy solutions. This meeting focuses on nuclear fusion, a promising field that could revolutionize energy production and potentially replace fossil fuels. Experts in the field will gather to discuss the challenges they face and the solutions they need from the industry. Join us in this debate about achieving viable nuclear fusion; the industry needs to make nuclear fusion a practical and sustainable energy source and explore the role of laser-based technologies and photonics in overcoming these obstacles. These challenges not only pertain to energy production itself but are also related to specific aspects of renewable energies, such as energy storage, smart grids and energy systems, and energy efficiency.

Could it be laser-based nuclear fusion that replaces fossil fuels? What can the industry do?
