An inertial fusion power plant is a type of nuclear fusion power generating facility that aims to produce energy through the fusion of atomic nuclei by using inertial confinement. Inertial confinement fusion (ICF) involves compressing and heating a small pellet of fusion fuel—typically a mixture of deuterium and tritium (isotopes of hydrogen)—to the extremely high temperatures and pressures needed for fusion to occur.
