From the supplier: The US stands to benefit from its involvement in the construction and implementation phase of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). Aside from providing opportunity for advancing the development of fusion plasma science, such an offer of host site will also mean expertise in fusion engineering and will be a significant contribution to the local economy. Science and technology will also gain from the participation of US firms in the production of ITER parts in terms of the resulting applications and fusion devices.
