UK-US Supercomputers to Build Digital Twins for Fusion Reactors

How AI Digital Twins Might Speed Up Fusion Power

Two fusion supercomputers in the UK and US could soon join forces. The plan would link them to train the same AI models. Crucially, they would use experimental data from separate fusion machines. Ultimately, this could help engineers design future power plants faster. The proposed system is called the SUNRISE-STELLAR-AI Federation. It would connect the […]

UK-US supercomputers to build digital twins for fusion reactors

Two fusion supercomputers in the UK and US could be linked to train the same AI models on experimental data from separate fusion machines, potentially helping engineers design future power plants faster. The proposed SUNRISE-STELLAR-AI Federation would connect the UK Atomic Energy Authority’s (UKAEA) SUNRISE supercomputer with the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory’s (PPPL) STELLAR-AI platform. Researchers would use data from the MAST Upgrade f…
