Manuel García Muñoz

Professor at University of Seville and Director of the Plasma Science and Fusion Technology Lab. Spain

Professor of Atomic, Molecular and Nuclear Physics at the University of Seville. Manuel Garcia-Munoz co-leads the “Fusion2Grid” strategy aimed at developing the most compact fusion power plant possible based on High Field Negative Triangularity Spherical Tokamaks. Garcia-Munoz´s team has successfully designed, constructed, and put into operation the Small Aspect Ratio Tokamak (SMART) to demonstrate the benefits of negative triangularity shaped plasmas in spherical tokamaks. He has secured more than 50 million to develop the Fusion2Grid strategy and the required enabling technologies.

This article has been translated using artificial intelligence Fusion energy is a global promise -but also a monumental challenge. To turn it into a clean, abundant, and safe energy source, mastering plasma is not enough: we must learn how to fuel and sustain that system for decades. That’s the key point raised by Richard Pearson, […]
