Philippe Busquin, the EU's research commissioner, told gathered experts the volume of Europe's fusion research would double from 2007 to 2013. Fusion powers stars and is seen as a cleaner approach to energy production than nuclear fission and fossil fuels. Mr Busquin was speaking at a 25th anniversary event at the Jet (Joint European Torus) fusion centre. The Jet project is one of the world's leading fusion research facilities, and holds the record for fusion energy production. Based at Culham in Oxfordshire, it is a collaboration between all European fusion organisations, and involves technology and physics research from the global scientific and engineering community. Prime Minister Tony Blair sent a message of support for the achievements of the project, which could lead to a substantial reduction in the use of fossil fuels to produce electricity.

To physicists, it sounds like the discovery of the Holy Grail. Researchers in the United States and Russia are tentatively claiming to have seen nuclear fusion in a simple bench-top experiment with nothing more than a beaker of liquid and some sound waves The findings cock a snook at decades of efforts to harness nuclear fusion for energy generation in hugely expensive reactors that create extreme conditions of temperature and pressure. If the claims are verified, the team will have achieved the same processes at a tiny fraction of the cost, using equipment available to almost anyone. But that does not in itself guarantee that this new process would be useful for power generation. It's one thing to produce a tiny amount of nuclear fusion, as the results seem to imply. Turning it into a viable industrial process is another matter entirely. "Scientists will - and should - remain sceptical until the experiments are reproduced by others," says nuclear physicist Fred Becchetti of the University of Michigan. Past claims for 'table-top fusion' have, he warns, been irreproducible.
