چکیده
The Energy Issues Working Group on Long-Term Visions for Fusion Power considered the following four questions: 1. What is the projected market for electrical energy production in the next century? 2. What is fusion's potential for penetrating the energy market in the next century? 3. Is there a potential role for advanced fusion fuels? 4. What is fusion's potential for applications other than conventional power plants? The first two questions were considered together in one session. Questions 3 and 4 were each considered in separate sessions. The following sections summarize the context, session format, and major conclusions emerging from each session.

ENERGY ISSUES WORKING GROUP ON LONG-TERM VISIONS FOR FUSION POWER The Energy Issues Working Group on Long-Term Visions for Fusion Power
Various projections of energy needs for the next century have been performed by several groups. These projections provide a benchmark for evaluating fusion's potential role. In addition, design studies of the anticipated economic and environmental characteristics of future fusion energy systems provide a context for assessing directions for fusion energy development. Thus, the technical bases f...
متن کاملGrid Impedance Estimation Using Several Short-Term Low Power Signal Injections
In this paper, a signal processing method is proposed to estimate the low and high-frequency impedances of power systems using several short-term low power signal injections for a frequency range of 0-150 kHz. This frequency range is very important, and thusso it is considered in the analysis of power quality issues of smart grids. The impedance estimation is used in many power system applicati...
متن کاملAnalyzing Impacts of FACTS Devices in Dealing with Short-Term and Long-Term Wind Turbine Faults
More than one hundred countries are using wind energy due to their easy implementation, cheap energy, and high energy efficiency. Implementation of FACTS devices in Wind Energy Conversion Systems (WECS) has been dramatically improved due to cooperative and accurate performance of FACTS devices. However, dealing with wind turbine faults promptly is crucial. Short-term and long-term faults may ha...

متن کاملSnowmass Hot Topic Chamber Science and Technology Key Question Number 5 Core Working Group Opinion Paper Re-evaluation of the Use of Low Activation Materials in Waste Management Strategies for Fusion
Background Materials choice has long been recognized as a key factor in realizing the full safety and environmental potential of fusion power. Because the materials are de-coupled from the fusion energy source (the plasma), the long-term neutron-induced activation of components can be tailored by proper selection of materials to avoid generation of waste that would require deep geological dispo...
