As Europe grapples with an ongoing energy crisis, fusion energy emerges as a potential solution, with startups like Proxima Fusion focusing on stellarator technology.

Stellarators, while underutilized, offer a different approach to achieving controlled nuclear fusion, which could significantly enhance energy capacity and reliability.

The exploration of this technology may have substantial implications for Europe's energy infrastructure, potentially increasing throughput and reducing dependency on traditional energy sources.
