India has emerged as a key player in the ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) project by contributing significantly to the completion of its main magnet system, including the cryostat — a massive vacuum-insulated steel chamber critical to the fusion process. As one of the founding members of this global nuclear fusion initiative, India’s efforts underline its expanding influence in high-tech energy research. This contribution not only supports ITER’s goal of achieving carbon-free energy through nuclear fusion but also showcases India’s advanced engineering capabilities and commitment to sustainable scientific advancement on a global scale.
