2013–2025. ITER (initially the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor, iter meaning "the way" or "the path" in Latin [1] [2] [3]) is an international nuclear fusion research and engineering megaproject aimed at creating energy through a fusion process similar to that of the Sun.
ITER is a global scientific partnership that aims to generate more heat than used to start the fusion reaction. It will test magnetic confinement and measure its performance for a future commercial fusion power plant.

ITER is a nuclear fusion reactor that aims to produce more energy than it consumes and prove the feasibility of fusion power. Learn about its size, performance, goals, and global collaboration in this article from the IAEA Bulletin.
ITER is designed to produce a ten times return on energy injected in the plasma: 500 MW of fusion power from 50 MW of input heating power (Q=10). It will be the first of all magnetic confinement fusion experiments in history to produce net energy.
